About the event
This is a fun way to honor service members. Both military and private vintage aircraft will fly from one border of South Carolina down to the other, all the way down the coastline. Military flights begin from Cherry Point north of Myrtle Beach starting at 1:00 p.m. on July 4th and make their way down to Bluffton and Beaufort. Participating: F-16s from Shaw Air Force Base, flown by military personnel; A C-17 from Joint Base Charleston, flown by military personnel; A special Warbird Flight with private vintage aircraft, including T-34s, T-6s and T28s.
Organizers estimate the F-16s will fly over the Isle of Palms around 1:15 p.m. The Warbird Flight should be over the IOP around 1:50 p.m. Times are approximate. Basically, keep an eye to the sky between 1:00 and 2:00 p.m. in the afternoon on July 4th.
