Flyover ends in -over /əʊvə(r)/ (AmE /oʊvər/). Over, clover, and moreover share this stressed /əʊvə(r)/ sound and rhyme with one another; in flyover the same ending is unstressed, so they are not perfect rhymes with it. Cover, hover, and lover are useful spelling lookalikes, but their vowel is /ʌ/ or /ɒ/, not /əʊ/.
