The U.S. Navy crew scheduled to perform the flyover at the Texas A&M-Tennessee game Saturday will have their planes on display to the public today.

Lt. Cmdr. Christopher Edwards said three F/A-18 Super Hornets will be at Astin Aviation Center off George Bush Drive for people to "learn everything there is to learn about Naval aviation."

Edwards, a member of the Texas A&M Class of 2001 and former member of Companies K-2 and C-1 in the Corps of Cadets, went into the Navy just a few weeks after he graduated. He's now the back-seater in the two-seat, $60 million F/A-18 -- the plane that will fly over Kyle Field during the national anthem before the game.

As the flight officer, he said he's responsible for managing the navigation system, communications system, weapons and big-picture tactical decision-making.

He said Navy higher-ups wanted to take advantage of this weekend -- with the football game and added attention from ESPN's College GameDay -- for some community outreach.
