It is confirmed that the GEICO Skytypers will be back. Also, I talked with LT Cary Rickoff, Blue Angel #7 and said that sometime in the middle of next month they will arrive for their winter visit.

The Para-Commandos have been added.

Mike Wiskus is confirmed and the F-22 Raptor will make its first appearance since 2007 which ironically is the year the Air & Sea Show ended and both the Raptor and Super Hornet debuted at the event.

Miss GEICO will participate in the event to race one of the GEICO Skytypers after their performance.

The Memphis Belle was removed and the lineup has been updated to reflect this and a C-17 demonstration has been announced.

UPDATE!

Announced earlier in the week, two A-10 Warthogs have been added to the lineup and will be performing on both days. Also two F-16's will be making an appearance ONLY on Saturday. Apparently there's still a pending military demo to be announced.

The Saturday sequence of flight is as follows:

- Miss Geico (boat) vs The Skytyper
- National Anthem (Flag Jump)
- SOCOM Para-commandos
- Mike Wiskus Preview

I attended yesterday and I must say although the weather was perfect and I am grateful we even have this airshow, it was mediocre at best and short. Some of the advertised demos didn't perform, including the Heritage Flight which is one of my favorites.

After the 2016 one, it has been mediocre ever since. The only reason I went in 2017 was because of the F-16. Last year was for the Class of 45 and this year I only went because of the Blue Angels. Be nice if they changed it up a bit instead of having the Para-Commandos, GEICO Skytypers and Lucas Oil coming every year because they’re starting to get stale.
