Re: Air Dot Show Orlando 2024

Really the only thing that might bring me to this show is the F-22, even then after going to the Orlando show last year might skip it. Obnoxiously large stage with too many speakers to where you can’t even hear yourself think. Also only 3 weeks out and still no static list… But does anyone else thi...

Re: Tampa Bay AirFest 2024

Beautiful day at MacDill AFB! We got in line to get in the MacDill Ave gate at about 7:30 am and were parked and going through security at 8:10 or so. A good mix of statics. Flying started at noon and we left just before the Thunderbirds at about 3 pm. We were trying to beat traffic and minimize the...

Re: Tampa Bay AirFest 2024

Is anyone from the forum going to the show? I'll be there tomorrow before the gates open and waiting in line to get in. I'm super stoked for my first airshow of the year! Debating on going both days, 100% going Saturday for the B1! We are going on Friday for the B-2. We've seen a B-1 twice since we...

Re: 2024 A-10 Thunderbolt II Demo Team Schedule

That's certainly a bummer. I knew this would come sometime soon, but I didn't know this would be the last year for the A-10 demo. For the USAF - please make an F-15EX Demo team (or Strike Eagle). Or better yet, have a two-ship Eagle demo team like the Growlers. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. But ...

An EX demo team is not happening.
Party pooper. :lol:

While I understand that an F-15 demo (Strike Eagle or EX) is unlikely, I'd love to see it. I was not attending airshows when there was an Eagle demo team, and I'm quite bummed at that.

Re: Tampa Bay AirFest 2024

Per MacDill's Facebook post, the BONE will be doing a flyover on Saturday. I'll be attending either Friday or Saturday and it will most likely depend on the weather. I'd prefer to see the B-2 on Friday.
