Sadly too much money spent on giving Google free fuel.

Seven Million Dollars for a three day golfing lesson with Tiger Woods....and Millions pissed away on Whitehouse Parties.....but no flyover possible.
We know where Odumbo's loyalties lie!
Or 100 million for his (Obamas) last Holiday.
At least the SS, FAA, White House etc allowed the fly over !

But once the burial was scheduled at Arlington, the Air Force told their families the U.S. government could not afford to honor the men with a traditional flyover due to budget cuts.
Absoloutly disgraceful. :mad:

What is noteworthy is that the brotherhood, that is the brotherhood of pilots, took care of one of their own.
:ok:
For all of the complaining, this was an opportunity for some good people to step up and do something worthy of note.
They did.
