Here are some links to articles about the RNoAF X-Mas Star formation. The star flying from Bodø consisted of 17 Vipers in Santa 01 Flight and toured the Northern parts of Norway. The star has been a tradition since the 1950s, and it is nice to see so many jets in the air at the same time!

That is rather awesome. I did have a few Hornets on TDY to MacDill buzz my house, but I wish for a Viper, Phantom or Beagle-shaped Christmas present Wink Wink
