Jets to be honoured with flyover

To celebrate the Newcastle Jets appearance in the A-League Grand Final this Sunday, there will be a flight of RAAF FA-18 Hornet jets making a low level pass over the Sydney Football Stadium.

The flight will originate from the RAAF base in Williamtown, which is just north of Newcastle.

Squadron Leader Alan Evan said: Everyone at the base is gunning for the Jets, and we wish them well on Sunday against the Central Coast Mariners. The flight will also be a spectacular event over the skies of Sydney, and will be a great addition to all the other sporting and entertainment activities in Sydney this weekend.

Meanwhile, on the Central Coast, there are advanced plans for the Royal Australian Navy to conduct a 21 gun salute and test firing of Stinger missiles off the coast.

Central Coast Mariners benefactor John Singleton dispelled rumours that there is a connection with the flyover and the RAN exercise. It is a total coincidence that the navy salute and test firing exercise is timed for when the flyover occurs. he said.

Any chance the FA 18s could incorporate a bombing exercise or a bit of straffing at the SOUTHERN end of the SFS on the way out? ;D

Prediction:

It is expected that one of the flyover jets, when nearing the Navy flotilla, will, without warning or provocation, suddenly tumble out of the sky with a spectacular dive. The call sign of said plane will be 'J Griffiths'.
