Readers reported around 1:45pm Monday: “Was there some sort of flyover just now in NW DC?”

Kelly found the answer: “Apparently Michael Collins’ funeral was finally held today at Arlington. Yes, that Michael Collins.”

From Arlington National Cemetery yesterday: “Earlier today, modified military funeral honors with funeral escort were conducted for US Air Force Maj. Gen. Michael Collins in Section 51, a fighter pilot and NASA astronaut who flew on the Gemini 10 and Apollo 11 missions.”
