The Navy has announced a special air show -- including a massive flyover of
San Diego Bay by more than 150 aircraft -- to celebrate the 100-year
anniversary of naval aviation.

"It is expected to be the largest aerial flyover since World War II and the
largest in San Diego since November, 1918," said Lt. Cmdr. Alli
Myrick-Ellison, a Navy spokeswoman in Coronado.
The Navy is billing the show as a once-in-a-lifetime event that will allow
the public to see the aircraft in flight from vantage points all around the
bay.

The show, slated for Feb. 12 at North Island Naval Air Station, kicks off
what will be a yearlong effort to mark the start of the Navy's foray into
the air.

The free event will also include a timeline-like display of aircraft from
vintage planes to the newest fighter jets.

It's also your chance to see inside a $4 billion Navy flattop.
Tours of Navy aircraft carriers and amphibious assault ships will be
offered, along with a tactical demonstration by Marine aircraft and ground
equipment.

The Navy's flying roots start in the San Diego region. In 1911, the Navy's
first aviator, Lt. T.G. Ellyson trained at North Island and later qualified
in the A-1 Triad, the Navy's first aircraft.
