NIAGARA FALLS, N.Y. --  Several T-38 Talon jets from Vance Air Force Base, Oklahoma performed a flyover at Ralph Wilson Stadium, Orchard park, N.Y. Sunday.

After the five jets finished their maneuvers over the National Football League game between the Buffalo Bills and the Miami Dolphins, they stopped, here, at the Niagara Falls Air Reserve Station for refueling and crew rest.

The T-38 Talon is a twin-engine, high-altitude, supersonic jet trainer used in a variety of roles because of its design, economy of operations, ease of maintenance, high performance and exceptional safety record.

Air Education and Training Command is the primary user of the T-38 for joint specialized undergraduate pilot training. Air Combat Command, Air Force Materiel Command and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration also use the T-38A in various roles.
