That’s a great shot of the harriers with the wall of fire behind. Nice to see some old faces and meet some new people today as well. I thought the show was excellent - certainly checked all the boxes for me. I was in at 7:15 and had no issues getting on the field or through security, and left right ...

Did they announce an EP-3E this morning and then quickly delete that post and repost it as a P-3C?

I don’t have any specifics on this show, but just be aware that Bert typically only flies in the Saturday show and not Sundays. Lighting is a bit backlit in the morning with the sun getting better in the afternoon - but everything will be so far away and so heat hazed it really won’t matter LOL

It looks like they updated their air show map on their Instagram feed - removed the HC-130, KC-46, U-28, 1xF-22 & 2xF-15.

Thanks CultOfTheWyvern for the honest review of this years Sun 'n Fun. I appreciate the candid take on the this year's event.

That upside down Bucker shot with no hands is awesome!

Any more shots of the statics - did they really have an EP-3E AIRES II show up?

On their Instagram they have been slowly revealing statics for this show - everything from the Berlin Airlift C-54, to a B-1, Coast Guard C-130 and Casa C-144, SC ANG F-16, UH-60, and a U-28.

The show website says that gates open at 9 AM - does that mean they start letting you on base at 9AM, or do they let you on earlier to park and then the security lines open at 9AM?

Does anyone know why this show skews so heavily on civilian acts, whereas Yuma is more the opposite?
