Re: Stuart Airshow 2023

And finally, tried a spot away from the airfield for some better lighting...not sure it 100% worked out the way I wanted it to, but I did give some different angles (still haven't gone through all of these yet) Where did you park offsite? Just curious. I'm not from Stuart (about 1.5 hours north), s...

Re: Stuart Airshow 2023

Still have more pics to go through from Sunday's show. There were several helicopters performing in the show which is always cool for me. A Huey and OH-6 were in a Vietnam downed pilot reenactment, an Airbus H-125 from the Martin County Sheriff Aviation Unit (plus Loki, the doggo), and the Red Bull ...

Re: Stuart Airshow 2023

A long, rather warm day but it was a great airshow. The only slight disappointment for me was the single-ship Growler Demo. It's still cool, but having the 2-ship is what makes it so awesome. All together it was about 4 straight hours of flying. I've got a bunch of pictures to go through, so I proba...

Re: Stuart Airshow 2023

Notes from the day show: - no F-35B, I'm afraid - C-17 did a full demo, and while the KC-135 showed up for the refueling demo, it only did a few passes, not a full on demo. - The TBM flew but it was far away and didn't really lend itself to photos. - Whatever happened to the EA-18G colorbird Friday...

Re: Stuart Airshow 2023

An EPIC twilight show, that's for sure. The Growlers may be my favorite act. The Growlers & Raptor vapes were awesome! Going back for the day show on Sunday.

Re: Stuart Airshow 2023

According to a Facebook comment reply on the show's page, the KC-135 might be accompanied by a c17 in its refueling demo. I'm not sure if they're referring to the one that was on static (which isn't on the static list on the website anymore oddly enough) and the person who is running the page got c...

Re: Stuart Airshow 2023

F-35B added per the website!

EDIT: it's no longer on the performers list. I don't think I was seeing things, but I have no evidence it was on the site. I'll guess I'll find out this weekend.

Re: Orlando Air and Space Show 2023

The TBirds had a near collision during the high low hit maneuver when the Diamond formation got hit with wake turbulence from the solo. I've seen the Thunderbirds do that maneuver so many times over the past several decades without issue. The solo is never that close to the diamond, it's always fly...

I hadn't heard about that. That looked way too close for comfort! We were on our way to our car at that time ...
