ANNAPOLIS, Md. (Sept. 2, 2018)
F/A-18 Super Hornets from Strike Fighter Squadrons (VFA) 31, VFA-32, VFA-87 and VFA-105 honor the late Sen. John McCain with a fly-over of the United States Naval Academy during his burial service, Sept. 2, 2018. The aircraft were in missing man formation, which consists of four aircraft in a formation shape of a "V" with the right arm, from the pilots' perspective, longer than the left. When the "V" passes over the ceremonial site, the aircraft in the "ring-finger" position pulls up and leaves the formation to signify a lost comrade in arms.
