After shooting the ships from the NJ side, I was on the Commodore Barry when the flyby of fighters and 2 V22s went over, up the river. A single f18 landed PHL 9R but the others haven't appeared. Heard a rumor they returned to Oceana for now, but no idea if it's true. The chocks are still out for them at PHL on the ramp. V22s returned to PNE and the fighters dropped off of adsbx.
Around 1015L GYPEY16 had a maint issue and rtbd to KNTU; was showing on ADSB on the rtb.

Planes have started the move across the pond, two currently in ETAR after leaving earlier today and one on the way to ADW, all flights were WHCA equipment. Due to the short notice you will not see the usual RCH+four digit callsigns.

After refueling 04-4130 RCH798 is enroute to Sharm El Sheikh International Airport (IATA: SSH, ICAO: HESH)

Has anybody seen a schedule or routes for the flyovers in the Philadelphia region for this weekend?

They have posted images reflecting each day's planned events here on their Facebook page:

Homecoming 250 Navy Marine Corps | Camden NJ

That's at least slightly more info than the very vague website which alluded to flyovers at 10, 12, and 2 every day - which sounded highly unlikely to me from the very beginning :(

I would expect a flyover for the soccer event later today. V-22s would be appropriate based on their history in that immediate area. The schedule lists this event from 4-7, which is incorrect - a women's event begins at 4, and the male event starts at 7. Attention to detail :rolleyes:

I'm sure there will be a flyover tomorrow afternoon before the Navy-Temple football game at Lincoln Financial Field.
