EXCERPTS: There will be U.S. military fighter jets and helicopters flying overhead in San Francisco during Super Bowl 50, and helicopter transportation could be the only means for the teams to get to and from Levi's Stadium,according to CBS Reporter Hannah Albarazi. In the past couple months, federal, state and local K-9 teams have conducted helicopter training at the Coast Guard Air Station in San Francisco to prepare for all the security measures for Super Bowl 50. There will be no-fly zones implemented by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) during the Super Bowl, and the U.S. Air Force and California Air National Guard will enforce them. F-15 pilots of the California Air National Guard will be standing by on Super Bowl Sunday and will be flying drills in preparation at Oakland International Airport on Feb. 3, according to Albarazi. On Feb. 7, game day, general aviation operations will be prohibited within a 10-nautical mile radius of Levi's Stadium.

For years America has witnessed an incremental ramp-up of security at the Super Bowl, this year the media has been hyping the inclusion of F-15 fighter jets in the security layout, of course domestically our airspace is protected by NORAD so the media blitz over these fighter jets is not as much about security as it is about acclimating the public.
