Does anyone in Texas organize fly overs like the Patriot Guards do escorts?

 

An Army door-gunner killed when the helicopter he was on came under enemy fire during the Vietnam War in 1968 will be laid to rest in Killeen next week.

After years of searching, the remains of Sgt. 1st Class Billy David Hill were identified last month, according to a Thursday news release from the Department of Defense.

An area pilot passed where I used to live. Everyone who was able met up and flew over the cemetery in line, at the family's request. Meet, plan, brief and go; fastest planes first, everyone flew the same speed. I couldn't get off work that afternoon in time to join the aerial conga line.

This is always an option if the Army / Guard can't make it. Just please don't try improvised formation flight!

Yes, The Commemorative Airforce does. Contact their main office and they will organize the logistics for the missing man.
