Maybe saving time on the other jet?
On the plus side, the forecast at the moment looks quite nice.
Same jets as at TOM I'm sure. The demo crew said the camo bird is getting worked on back home but sounded confident it will be back in time for Cleveland or possibly sooner.

Overall a great little show. Only $5 to park and free entry. Beverages were reasonably priced.
Our parking spots (which was regular public parking) were super close. Traffic to get out was no big issue. Plenty of restrooms.

Photography and video wise the light was good. Saturday the wind was calm so all the smoke hung out, but nothing we could do about that.
Over all a good small town show. Flying was pretty much non stop from 12-3:15. I'd definitely go again....which sadly probably wont be for another 25 years. LOL
