Can any show in Canada have a GOOD weather forecast??

This is ridiculous. Hopefully it stays relatively dry.

2 more Super Hornets confirmed for Friday and Sunday from VFA-37 Raging Bulls.
They say a total of 14 Hornets now (But I count 17?).

I'm not sure why the F-16 Demo is still listed on their performer page.

I think they are counting actual flying Hornets so not the B/A spares.

Gotcha! Makes sense. (But how will they get there if they're not flying ;) )

I meant in the show, but now I see the Growlers are gone and the 2 F-18E are the "replacements"

You can rule out the F-35A Demo Team as a replacement for the F-16 Viper Demo Team.

Very disappointed with the ACC at this point. There are other ways to support the show even if your 'official' teams are busy. Hopefully something ends up getting worked out.

Must say I love the Navy and RCAF participation this year. 4 days!
