As far as I have heard, VFA-106 will be doing the only full Super Hornet demo and VFA-125 will be doing some sort of an F-35C demo. VFA-122 and VAQ-129 will be performing Legacy Flights and possibly adding a few bonus flybys but nothing aerobatic as they are not certified for that. The T-45s and T-6As are also possibly participating in Legacy Flights still but I have not seen them in any shots from the conference so that seems doubtful.Maverick_Kenwei wrote: ↑Tue Mar 02, 2021 5:50 pmI always thought the VFA-122 would do a full demo along with EA-18G demo.

It’s not like the Air Force where all 4 single-ship demo would perform, in the Navy, they got 2 full demo while other 2 only do legacy flights and flybys on occasionRyanS wrote: ↑Tue Mar 02, 2021 5:54 pmAs far as I have heard, VFA-106 will be doing the only full Super Hornet demo and VFA-125 will be doing some sort of an F-35C demo.

Does anyone have any updates on a schedule being released in the near future for the legacy flights and/or demos?

The 2021 Wings over South Texas @ Buc Days along the Corpus Christi Bayfront will be hosting the US Navy F-35C Lightning II Demonstration Team from VFA-125 during the airshow on 1-2 May 2021. We are still awaiting information from the Legacy Flight Program if there will be a warbird also participating. We're excited to be on their 2021 Airshow Demo Schedule!

Just to update my earlier post - I confirmed that no T-45s or T-6s were involved in the Legacy Flight Conference this year so they will presumably not be flying in the program this year. I'm disappointed, it was nice to see the variety!

I've just noticed that lol , kinda bummed now there's no T-6 Texan IIs and/or T-45 Goshawks involved in the Legacy Flight Team this year, hopefully, next year, the Navy will add them back on to the flying list, however, I was somewhat fortunate enough to see 2 flights of 3 to 4 Goshwaks coming in-&-out of El Cento in between the leisure times before the Blue Angels and Thunderbirds practices went up. I believe the formation was form TW-2 stationed at NAS Kingsville, TX.

Accroding to an article on the Calexcio Chronicle, presummably the Navy TACDEMO team will be at the Broadcasted “Festival of Flight”.
Via: https://calexicochronicle.com/2021/03/r ... s-planned/The Festival of Flight is the Navy’s largest community outreach event in the Imperial Valley region. This year’s schedule includes the highly-anticipated performance by the Navy’s elite flight demonstration squadron, the Blue Angels, who will mark their 75th anniversary and are transitioning to the F/A-18 E/F Super Hornets. Other scheduled acts include the Air Force’s A-10 Thunderbolt II, the Navy’s F/A-18 TACDEMO and jump team – the Leapfrogs – as well as the Marine Corps’ MV-22 Osprey.

I just saw on the Miami Beach Air & Sea Show website that, supposedly the Rhino Demo Team will be performing. Of course, we'll have to wait see if RDT confirms it.

I caught wind of this, but I don't appear to find the F-35C, EA-18G, or even the F4U on their "Featured Perfomers" page. They either remove the performer or that was just some mistake.n33d4sp33d_85 wrote: ↑Tue Mar 09, 2021 1:27 am The Great Tennessee Air Show to feature the US Navy F-35C Lightning II Demo Team and a Legacy Flight with an F4U Corsair and EA-18G Growler.
