Braves Opening Day Flyover

[TexasFlyer03]

This past Thursday I had the privilege of performing a flyover for the Atlanta Braves Opening Day ceremony. It is pretty funny how life comes full circle. I grew up playing baseball, ended up being an ok pitcher which allowed me to get into the Air Force Academy. And I will be honest the fact that I could throw a baseball was the only reason I had a chance at getting in. Long story short I have had the opportunity to fly jets for the past couple years and now get to sometimes do stuff like this. I enjoyed paying back the sport that has opened many doors for me even though I never had the talent to go pro.

Enjoyed the video. I also noticed all players standing with their cap are hand over their heart. Guess the owner has it right.

Yep. High percentage of MLB players born in other countries and STILL show respect to our country.....meanwhile, American-born NFL players can't do it. It's cultural, and I don't mean nationality culture, I mean ghetto culture.



Awesome opportunity for the OP. Very cool experience.

Awesome video. My dad was a Navy strike fighter pilot for 32 years, I was always jealous when he was able to do cool things like this.
