Over at the beach,

I was at the practice show today and was it amazing!

All the demo teams performed, the Viper performed twice (one full demo and then a teaser.) 4 F-16's circled the beach for a little while. Nothing major, it look liked they were just surveying. The USCG performed their lengthy SAR demo with just a Dolphin. Word is the Dolphin will be joined by the Sentry tomorrow. US Customs performed their demo. As I expected, the USAF Pararescue demo featured the C130, 2 Pavehawk helicopters, and 4 A-10's. They stole the show!

Excited for the full show this weekend!

Awesome! Was it packed out there? I was going to head out there but was worried about the traffic getting in and out so I went to airport instead...

Looked like a normal day on Miami Beach. I am sure tomorrow will be a different story though.
