No Fat Albert. Grounded along with all C-130 T models. Been that way since the KC-130 that went down. Rumors have been floating that it would be lifted but hasn't happened yet. Also rumors floating that the Navy was looking to get a J model from the British Air Force
Do they still do the practice run on the Friday before, at the normal show times? (That is, ending at 3pm?)
I would think this year would be no different with Friday being a full practice for most/all performers taking part. There is an excellent lineup this year IMO. Enjoy!!
What ever happened to the “FRG notible visitor” page?
FYI - It's still right here >>>

Thank you! For some reason the search kept saying “no answer to the question”
Anyone see if the info boards have #7's arrival time yet?
I’m at KFRG now and on Grumman Road (off of NY 110) there’s an electronic mobile sign saying “Blue Angels arrive Thursday 0900”.
Does anyone recall what time they have taken off, in years' past, for their Annapolis Commencement fly-over? They are slated to fly-over Annapolis @ 1004. Trying to get to FRG for take-off on Friday morning.
Thank you in advance for any information you can share!
Happy Memorial Day and thank you to those that served!
