    I don't know, but this exjw enjoyed the Blue Angels flying over Annapolis last week for the Naval Academy commencement!

    Maybe related: all the JWs I've known love the 4th of July fireworks.

    always enjoyed the flyovers, Zeppelins in the 30s, 300 B17 in the 40, night time fireworks targeting the droning wellingtons, lancasters hidden in the darkness,

    Military planes are awesome. Even in the promised iffy new world, they should be maintained just to awe the sheep with the power of puny human creators, and let us aerobatic fiends have the joy of stick and rudder pleasure.

    The worst possible paragraph in the supposed new judgement scrolls that will be opened:

    Thou shalt not build aeroplanes!.

    Also watched the silent shuttle launches from our front yard , the later arrival of the thunder; -- the teeth shaking mars launches.

    come to think of it, according to wtBtS inc.

    Satan is supposedly confined to the earth's surface, --never the less, -- humans escape, gaining freedom through levitation.

    When I was a mind numbing JW, I liked. And like it even as a worldly person.

    I know an elder who is very much into this kind of thing. He is a regular visitor to RAF Scampton where the 617 Squadron (Dambusters) museum is located. He attends all the air shows he can manage as he is very old now. I don't know if he was in the RAF when he was younger, he became a witness in the 1950's. Actually a very nice guy.

    Not a fly over but many jw would go to an annual concert featuring and Army band and real cannons for a replay of the 1812.

    Z: agree, noit just the sights, the sound of the vents are greattoo. the better if they feature the national anthems, without prejudice: the American, English, soviet, french, german.

    serious music. surely approved by the father who made the nations.

    People like machinery. Airplanes, trains, cars, Eiffel towers. The planes have hotdogs at the stick u unlike a passenger plane. Add cannons and machine guns and tanks

    rtn the armament is never a feature in these displays, fake fireworks perhaps . The aerobatic teams of Britain, italy canada others use trainers for their aerial artwork.

    those sticks are magic, can turn, from the pilot's view, the world upside down with the flick of the wrist, to the tune of

    "He has the world in his hand." or " ueber alles " aka overhead.
