Seeing something unusual in the Denver sky on September 11?

Here's why.

As part of a 9/11 memorial tribute, United Airlines will conduct a planned flyover over City and County of Denver Government featuring a Boeing 777 accompanied by F-16 aircraft from Buckley Air Force Base. Planes will be visible around 9:03am.

Because of the size and flight profile of the aircraft, the flyover may be:

• Highly visible from parts of Denver
• Noticeable by sound
• More noticeable than a typical aircraft overhead
• Brief, but potentially surprising if you aren't aware it's happening

There is no emergency. This is a planned memorial event.
Join us in taking a moment to remember and honor the lives lost on September 11, 2001.
