Re: NAS Key West Southernmost Air Spectacular 2023

Will be interesting to see how it plays out with the A-10 demo team for this show. They are still listed as performing at Cocoa Beach on the actual ACC schedule, but the A-10 is not currently listed as a performer at either show on their official websites. Unless Cocoa Beach is cancelled I would be ...

Re: 2022 Aviation Nation

So naturally right after I talked up the show I noticed the Horseman F-86 team isn't listed on the website anymore. Not sure if anyone already called that out on here, but that is a really disappointing loss considering how light the vintage AF lineup is. Interestingly, they still do list the F-86 f...

Re: 2022 Aviation Nation

While I too would like to see a bit more creativity in the lineup for the AF 75 Anniversary, it seems a bit harsh to call a show with 5 Tac demos, a combined arms demo, and the Thunderbirds a "pathetic lineup". You will literally have 6-7 different models of current fighters in the air. Sp...

Re: NAS Oceana Air Show 2022

Anybody have any intel on the F-35C team? As of 4:30pm the team had not arrived. I was talking to the locals and heard everything from them being grounded because of engine problems or the ejection seat issues to they were stuck in Texas. That said, I have heard some rumbles over there in the last h...

Re: Cleveland National Air Show 2022

Definitely a mixed bag of a practice day. The good was REALLY GOOD. First, the pier was actually open the entire day, which was an awesome surprise. Despite the TFR starting at 10 there was nothing in the air the first 1.5+ hours. Once things started close to 12 it was a pretty action packed hour an...

Re: NAS Oceana Air Show 2022

For either show, do you know if the bombers are only flying on one day, or is it both? I know with the bombers nothing is really concrete, but it would be nice to know. [/quote] Not sure, but typically from my experience the B-2 is almost always only one of the two days. B-52 is often the same, but ...

Re: NAS Oceana Air Show 2022

The heritage flight has been removed from the lineup as of yesterday. I assume they couldn't find a P-51 with the usual two east coast mustangs flying at Andrews the same weekend. Speaking of Andrews, I have heard that it is likely that at least one of the bombers that are scheduled for ADW will be ...

Re: Dover AFB Open House & Airshow/Thunder Over Dover 2022

Yeah honestly I didn't think so. I couldn't recall a single circumstance when one was cancelled because of heat. Hopefully you are right on the humidity. That accompanied with a nice breeze sure could help, but at the end of the day 94 is 94, but better than 100 to be sure. Haha.

Re: Dover AFB Open House & Airshow/Thunder Over Dover 2022

Has a show ever been cancelled because of excessive heat? I have been attending airshows since I was about 8 years old and I cannot ever remember one with 94 degree temperatures. I still plan on attending, but this is going to be absolutely brutal. People in general aren't particularly bright, so yo...
