Rob says two of his most memorable news stories during his colorful career include flying with both the Air Force Thunderbirds and the Navy's Blue Angels.

In November 2003 Rob Jennings was inducted into the Philadelphia Broadcast Pioneers' Hall of Fame for his remarkable and steadfast service to the citizens of the Delaware Valley.
