Hello,

Does anyone know for certain the displays that will be at the 2017 NEPA Air Show this weekend? There is a list on their website www.nepairshow.com but it is not confirmed.

I hope to see a number of great displays as were shown before they cancelled the event.

C5, F15, F16, A10, etc.

I fixed your link and moved this to the 2017 airshows section and merged it with the existing thread

There isn't any way to really tell what will be on static unless the show announces it. If they trimmed some planes off their list it's probably a pretty safe bet they won't be there. Usually shows over-promise, not the other way around. However, they are also highly fluid and you might find a surprise or two. All you can do is hope for the best!

Modern military statics were a bit lean.

But you can't complain about the F-22 Demo and Super Hornet Demo Teams.

Super Hornet had a tech problem on Sunday in the middle of the demo, but came back a little later in the back up jet, just before the F-22.

Anybody in the scanner crowd find out what the problem was?

We basically got 2 Super Hornet Demos on Sunday.

Army had plenty of equipment on display from Tobyhanna Depot. I mean there were some very unique displays. Anybody who is into Army armor must have had a great time.
