Too bad about the T-50, I wonder what the story is.
The T-50A was there as a static. I had a talk with the pilot, he said they planned to fly two as a formation but it didn't work with their scheduling for some reason.

The website says 6:20 is the start time, but that's really exciting! I don't know that the raptor has ever done an evening demo, can anyone confirm?

Re: TBM Avenger - Aircraft of the Month - May 2017

I saw this one at the Monroe Air Show last year. It's owned by the Mid-Atlantic Air Museum. It was not at the gathering last year.

Re: MCAS Beaufort Airshow 2017

I went on Sunday, it was a flat show with Blue Angel 6 coming in early. It definitely left to be desired.

Aerobatics: The Blades (do they count?) Formation team: RoKAF Black Eagles, without a do...
