i must admit, it wasn't the most impressive fly by in history but it is the one i shall most definately remember for the rest of my life. last friday, one of our flight instructors passed awaw after suffering a brain anurisym and made plans for a fly-by at his funeral on the following monday. the day of, the wx was intermittent at best, 500ft at times, obscured with heavy snow at others. when the service was just about over and the requisite apologies were made about not having the fly-by because of the weather and the safety of the pilots, we heard a low droning slowly get louder and finally five 172s slipped over the treeline at about 100' and executed a missing man break overhead.
not really the reheat blazing, barrier breaking flyby on par with the others in this thread but i can tell you, there was not a dry eye in the place after they passed over.
