Fingers crossed for an A-10 Heritage Flight!
Heard a rumor Thunderbird 8 was at KFRG yesterday
That would be awesome if they are going to be based out of Republic! Looked on Twitter and Facebook but just found that #8 was conducting site visits, no specific locations.
I wouldn't hold out hope that the Thunderbirds will use Republic. I would bet on McArthur and then JFK. The runways at Republic are to short for the Thunderbirds to use.
If # 8 did indeed come in, and I can't confirm the rumor then it was just a one time thing for the site visit.
FYI the Thunderbirds will be doing the FlyOver for the Super Bowl this Sunday!! Hopefully clear skies and multiple camera angles lol
Also just saw added performers on the shows website:
10th Rescue Wing
AAM warbirds
David Windmill er
Matt Chapman
John Katt and Screamin Sasquatch
Hhmmm... I know this is our hometown airshow and I'll support it but, they really need to start and mix it up a little bit. They're basically re-running the 2015 show sans the Breitling Team. (Or for that matter the 2014 and 2016 shows just swap out the Blue's). I wish they would take a page from the playbook of the Quonset airshow. It seems like every year they change up the civilian acts. And as far as the military demos go? We'll see....
C'mon this is New York! The show is attended by 400K people. Don't we rate a B-2, B-52 or B-1 flyby?!? It would also be nice if they put together something special like Grumman flight.
As for those flybys... Doubtful since we had FiFi in town a few years ago and couldn't get a flyby
