Fleet Week starts October 6 with the practice runs over the City and Bay. It is always a special treat to see the planes buzz the City and practice their maneuvers. Fleet Week has been getting better and better each year.
This year, the Canadian Snowbirds will be flying. Also, the Parade of Ships will be lead under the Golden Gate Bridge by the USS Carl Vinson on Saturday.
Here is the website and schedule of events:
