Favorite Airshow Performer/Performance
What is your favorite airshow performer or performance to watch?
For me it is hands down the Canadian Snowbirds. Seeing them perform at Oshkosh last year was magical!

For me I have always enjoyed pretty much everyone and everything.
However, there are a few performers/acts that do stand out to me that I have really enjoyed very much.
John Mohr - Stearman
Matt Younkin-Twin Beach Day and Night show
Northern Lights - (When they were flying the extra's)

Although it isn't a regular performer, the Collings Foundation F-4 Phantom is easily my favorite.
Among aircraft that are regularly touring, the Canadian Warplane Heritage Avro Lancaster tops my list.

It's hard to pick a single favorite, I'll break it into groups.
Military Demonstration: F-22 Raptor Demo
Warbird: P-51 Mustang "Quicksilver"
Stunt: Rob Holland
Formation Team: Thunderbirds (I may be one of the few who prefer the Tbirds to the Blues)

Look at your six, It's me!!!
F-22, V-22 and F-16 aside, I haven't seen many of your US performers, but from what I've seen elsewhere:
Military Demo: Armée de l'Air Dassault Rafale C
Warbird: sorry, I'm an uncultured brat, don't have one...
Aerobatics: The Blades (do they count?)
Formation team: RoKAF Black Eagles, without a doubt!
Favourite overall performance: the jaw-dropping opening ceremony at LIMA last month... 7 PC-7s, 2 Su-30s, 5 Hawks and 2 Hornets from the front, another Hornet from behind with the formations crossing low over the crowd, and simultaneous explosions and fireworks all down the runway - and that was just the final 20 seconds!

Was that opening ceremony not amazing? Lima is usually great but that was just so overwhelmingly awesome.Adam wrote: ↑Wed Apr 12, 2017 1:27 pm F-22, V-22 and F-16 aside, I haven't seen many of your US performers, but from what I've seen elsewhere:

The most amazing airshow moment I have ever seen, by far. My jaw dropped the moment it started and stayed firmly on the ground for the next 5 minutes. Incredible choreography and incredible selection of aircraft!
