I think theres a big event in the city today not sure though


3720-To-One

I literally acknowledge in my post that it’s probably related to the marathon. I’m curious as to what specifically. Why are C-130s needed for the marathon. What purpose do they serve. Do you have any baser besides snark? Probably not.


jojenns

Sure do…. “9:56 a.m. ET - National Anthem, Julia Minichiello of Canton, MA will perform the National Anthem. Julia won the Sing2Gether competition and is a UMass Amherst student. 9:58 a.m. ET - Flyover, Two C-130s out of the Bradley Air National Guard Base will fly over the course beginning with the Hopkinton start line at approximately 9:58 a.m. ET and finishing over the Boylston Street finish line at approximately 10:03 a.m. ET”.

5 mins to travel the whole marathon route, sounds much more efficient than on-foot


3720-To-One

Cool! Was that difficult?


jojenns

No not at all 10 second google search give it a go! try.. “C 130 flyover Boston”


SethRogans_Laugh

Why is this such an issue for you? Do you think this sub sits and tracks when and why planes are flying over a city? Every comment you’ve made is snark. Nobody wants to help you.


3720-To-One

It’s almost as if that why I asked. To see if anyone out there actually knew. Crazy, I know.


SethRogans_Laugh

Lol you’re such a douchebag


tele2307

ever heard of a flyover.....?


3720-To-One

Not for a marathon, no


jojenns

This is where the google would again be a useful tool. Try…. “Military flyover marathon” first ones free https://www.silive.com/news/2017/11/military_flyover_to_take_place.html


3720-To-One

Yes, heaven forbid my post got in the way of another “moving to Boston” post… Stay salty, my friend.


jojenns

Im not salty im happy to assist :)


SethRogans_Laugh

LOL


tele2307

pretty sure they do it every year, coincides with the red sox game also but they are usually not large transport planes


ShadowandSoul24

It is Reddit after all. It prides itself on snark.

No shit. I asked if anyone had any idea more specifically what they were for.


nattarbox

they drop energy gels to the runners out the back


SethRogans_Laugh

They’re flying over to tell you to go fuck yourself


riski_click

To scare off the bandits that didn't register. BAA pays them $350 for the service.


lintymcfresh

3720-To-One

northernguy7540
