Certainly the best heavy lineup since sequestration.AirshowHawk wrote: ↑Wed Jul 24, 2019 6:43 pm Thanks for catching the CC-150 announcement for me theairshowdude.
Just a couple more weeks until showtime and the static lineup is the best in years!

They also uesd a Growler at the HFM open house a couple of weeks ago by the looks of it. Maybe they are doing what the Raptor demo does, use the closest available airframe instead of flying theirs all over the country.theairshowdude wrote: ↑Wed Jul 24, 2019 6:34 pmVFA-122 have also not been using their jets so far this
season. They used Stinger jets at Gig Harbor so here's hoping those come to abby.
A question for AIAS. With the lack of forest fires this year( so far) is it a possibility to have a Conair plane on static or flying? It has been a long long time since this has happened. Great work on the statics, looking forward to arrivals!!

Sorry to say I've been incredibly busy so not that many new pictures lately.
I bet we'll get a CAG Bird from NAS Lemoore. But we'll see what we'll see.

For departure day, I have seen things start to leave around 7:30. Everything would usually be done either around noon or 1. I am expecting a lot of people to be out there this year with all the radical stuff we have static wise, plus performers. Hoping for good flybys, we miss them. I am most excited to see the USAF Thunderbirds taxi out and depart in their sexy F-16's

Some years in the past the RCAF Hawk has left as early as 6:30 AM. But like Viper said anytime between 7-7:30 should be safe bet to not miss anything.

And stick around Sunday after the show. Any navy stuff usually leaves soon after the show. And any rescue type of aircraft will sometimes depart when the show is done.
