GRAND RAPIDS, Michigan — West Michigan residents can catch a glimpse of the Michigan Air National Guard on Tuesday as it salutes workers on the front-lines of the coronavirus pandemic.
Military aircrafts from the National Guard's 127th Wing based at the Selfridge Air National Guard Base in Harrison Township will flyover cities, including Grand Rapids and Battle Creek.
The southeast Michigan based unit is conducting flyovers all over the state as part of its Michigan Strong campaign to show appreciation for workers battling COVID-19. The dates and times are subject to change due to weather and operational requirements, but flyovers are planned for both May 12 and 13.
A map released Monday night shows Grand Rapids flyovers happening at 3:08 p.m. over the Grand Rapids Home for Veterans and 3:10 p.m. over the U of M Hospital.
The U.S. Navy Blue Angels are also planning to salute front-line workers in Detroit on Tuesday.
