The Michigan Air National Guard will be performing fly-overs above nine Michigan cities tomorrow morning as the United States Air Force celebrates one hundred years since the first ever successful aerial refueling maneuver.

On the list of locations to see the KC-135 Stratotankers fly in formation with A-10 Thunderbolt 2’s will be the Blue Water Bridge at around 10:20 AM. Other notable viewing spots include the Mackinac Bridge, Downtown Grand Rapids, the Detroit River, and of course when the jets return to Selfridge Air National Guard Base at about 12:35 pm.

Following the fly-overs, anyone who took pictures is invited to share them to the Air Force’s 127th Wing’s Facebook page or Instagram for a chance to receive a unit patch.
