I am not trying to be pessimistic, but I would be shocked if this show happens at this point. Langley just announced the are moving back to HPCON Bravo. Not sure if Oceana did the same, but I know they are back requiring masks on base regardless of vaccination status.

As the previous post mentioned, cases are rising sharply in Virginia. Plus, I noticed a few days ago they suddenly took down the tickets available for purchase on the shows website. The same thing happened in the Spring on the Cherry Point website just before they cancelled. I am afraid they will be pulling the plug on this within days which is really a shame given the strong lineup this year. I wish they would just move it to the beach. Plenty of room to spread out on one of the widest beaches on the east coast.

Upsetting, but expected. Shame they couldn't make another virtual event.
