WWII Warplanes in Washington Flyover to Celebrate VE Day Anniversary

The Arsenal of Democracy Flyover on May 8 celebrated the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II with a parade of World War II era planes across the sky in Washington, DC. These videos show some of the planes that flew over the nation’s capital. The dozen planes participated in 15 different historically sequenced warbird formations, representing major battles throughout the war.

The planes were to be displayed at National Air and Space Museum’s Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center at Washington Dulles International Airport on May 9 for a special exhibit. Credit: Facebook/Lars Halusa
