A group of jets flying over COVID-19 front line workers is expected to pass above the Levittown area.
The New Jersey Air National Guard’s 177th Fighter Wing and 108th Wing will pass over the area between 12:07 p.m. and 12:13 p.m. on Tuesday as they head from the New Jersey Department of Military and Veterans Affairs office outside of Trenton to Jefferson Cherry Hill Hospital in Camden County, New Jersey.

The flyover will feature three F-16 Fighting Falcons and a KC-135R Stratotanker that will pass over medical facilities throughout the Garden State.
“Never underestimate the value of a morale boost when in combat. I want to thank the NJ Air Guard for its patriotic gesture and flyover in support of our first responder cohorts as we continue to battle COVID-19,” said Brig. Gen. Jemal Beale, commander of the New Jersey National Guard and commissioner of the New Jersey Department of Military and Veterans Affairs.

The flyover follows one two weeks ago that was done by the U.S. Navy Blue Angels and U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds.
