B-roll video shows the view from a U.S. Air Force KC-135 Stratotanker performing a flyover at the Crossover at Kinnick, Iowa Women’s outdoor basketball game in Iowa City on Sunday, October 15, 2023.

The historic venue for the Iowa Air National Guard pregame flyover featured a refueling aircraft from the Iowa Air National Guard passing over the University of Iowa’s football stadium where the event was held.

The 185th Air Refueling Wing was invited to perform the flyover as the Iowa Hawkeye women took on the Blue Demons from Depual in Iowa City.

The home team flyover is thrilling for unit members who had a chance to be a part of the excitement of Big Ten basketball.

Before returning to Sioux City the KC-135 aircrew made the two-hour round trip to Iowa City where they made a low pass over Kinnick Stadium in the air refueling aircraft.

Demonstrations like Sunday’s flight allow pilots to combine regular training with aerial demonstrations. The event also happed to coincide with the Air Guard unit’s scheduled October training weekend.

Flying demonstrations like the one on Sunday are part of the U.S. Air Force aerial events program that are designed to incorporate training activities with aerial demonstrations. These events also help foster unit morale and contribute to community support.

About Moody Bridge Chat

Bridge Chat's purpose is to create cohesive, high-performing teams that foster trust and connection through flexible and consistent small group discussions; in direct response to overwhelming feedback from the CSAF 21's Resilience Tactical Pause.

Caring for our Wingmen is what defines us as Airmen, so we must work to get to know our teammates and the challenges they face. We all have the same responsibility of creating the workplace we want and supporting the people we share our lives with.

Bridge Chat topics are posted here monthly to encourage small group discussions within teams. Beginning the process of recurring discussions can be difficult, but will become easier with time and reinforce the Flying Tiger culture.

To help us initiate and facilitate these discussions, we have included a guide that defines roles and ground rules.

The Flying Tiger Bridge Chat Facilitator provides facilitator trainings for base personnel. Their goal is to create squadron facilitators who take action on ACC's goal of equipping, engaging and empowering Airmen with resilience tools and create high-performing teams who look out for each other. To schedule training, contact 229-257-3211.
