I'll be there both days. Trying to figure out if this is correct or not:

Looks right, first row is the heritage flight, second row is the review flight, third is the CAD Demo. The only thing is the F-4D, don't know where they'd get that from. I really hope that flies!

[Airplanefreak2000]

It would be the collings foundation f-4d if it's ready to gl. I don't think it will be from what I'm hearing. Here are some photos I took of it in 2010.

Blue Angels arrive on the 17th @ 1700 if anyone is interested.

Sounds like the F-4 will not be there after all, maintenance issues most likely.

[AndyMedic]

Thats too bad they couldnt score the F-4 or a spitfire considering their history there

[BradleeG102896]

Gonna be there Saturday, looks like it's setup to be a good Airshow!!

[AndyMedic]

Is anyone going to be spotting from outside the base? I know there were some spots to do it from that had good light too
