I found a previous video of the MAGTF demo that consisted of legacy hornets, did Cherry Point at one time base them or were they from another near by base? I also noticed in the Harrier video I posted you could see them in the background. Doing a quick search doesn't turn up any F18Cs stationed there.

I'm actually excited.

Is this likely to be the last time we see the AV-8B perform? I saw the Harrier demo at MCAS Yuma in 2018, but Yuma no longer has any now. I believe that Cherry Point has the last 2 squadrons of Harrier. It looks like it. Going by this video https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=TMQ3w8ncTqY&pp=ygURQWlyc...

I can't speak on most aspects of your trip, but DC to Virginia beach. I have made the drive in about 4 hours... and it's taken me as much as 8 hours, then top it off with getting onto NAS Oceana, I'd probably park the car toss the keys and get me a scooter. But seriously it can be done, I'd really s...

A prior post mentioned something lacking this year. I honestly couldn't agree more. I attended Saturday and watched off base and from the beach Thursday, Friday, and Sunday. To me the biggest thing is how the Fleet Air Power Demo has deteriorated over the years. It used to be so interesting not jus...

LiveAirshowTV just confirmed that The Raptor will be flying at Beach Blast

That looks like the normal setup... just missing all the bodies.

Raptors will arrive around 1700 today. Landing and staging out of Oceana Will you be popping some flares at the show? :D I'm sure rules and regulations for airshows has changed over the years but I want to say the F14 did it back in the day at Oceana. I was a little surprised we didn't get any at L...

For the Saturday show, does anyone plan on getting BLEACHER seats that hasn't purchased them yet?
I must of been half sleep when I bought these tickets but it looks like I have 4 extra... I guess Message me if interested.

Saw the air power demo practice today. No VFC-12 Ambush or color birds. Looked to be all Pukin' Dogs, Sunliners and Red Rippers. Possibly a 106 Roman jet for the sneak pass. Also included a E-2D with AB tailcode (VAW-126?). Looked like they tweaked/limited the bombing/gun runs but it could have bee...
