Here is the 2023 performance schedule for the USMC F-35B Lightning II! There are almost certainly demos planned at various USMC bases also, but the Marines don't list those for some reason

Is it the same pilot flying the F-35B demo, it just that the F-35B was assigned to different units?

This is a video of a practice from El Centro posted by Spencer Hughes on YouTube. Looks like the aerobatic demo VMFAT-501 has been doing for the past few years. Hopefully this means all of the demos will be like this from now on.

Thats what I heard, they want to turn into a full aerobatic demo, but more shows, its going to evolve to something similar to Navy Demo Teams.
