The states people fly-over when flying from New York to California. They represent the Mid-West and Southern states which are deemed "redneck" states.
These states lack culture and are crawling with uneducated white trash. They tend to show contempt towards the coastal cities, mainly because their own ignorance and low-class lifestyles hold them back from reaching any educational or capitalistic achievements, and thus blame the coastal cities for their own demise. Tourists tend to avoid these states, as there is nothing to do there and they do no contribute to American culture, as do the east and west coasts.

John: People in fly-over states are stuck in their own hell. No Ivy League schools, no exciting cities, and awful weather.
Joe: Yeah, there's nothing to do there. God bless the coastal cities!

Fly over state is a part of the United States of America that is between the East and the West coasts. There are not many transportation stops there, because it is mostly a fly over state.

The states flown over by many flights going to New York to Los Angeles. These states are often ignored and thought to be second class to coastal states. This however is not true. These states are populated with people who work hard.
The fly-over states often have many educational opertunities including colleges like South Dakota School of Mines and Technology. If one would like to learn about these states, they should visit the fly-over states.

States where you should avoid ever being on the ground, due to civil forfeiture laws which allow the cops to literally rob you.
"My uncle drove through a Fly-Over State with $5,000 cash, and he got stopped, and the cops just took it, after they found it with dogs. Now he can't get it back, because it's on trial in "Texas vs. $5,000."

The new guy at work is from some fly-over state. I don't remember if he said he was from Wyoming or West Virginia.
