For what it's worth, Flight Radar 24 is reporting Thunderbirds arrival at ISP @ 4:30pm, with their C-17 lagging behind around 6:30pm. I found this info by searching KISP on the app and looking through the scheduled arrivals. Of course, nothing is ever confirmed with these flights so take this as you may. Good luck to everyone and hope the weather holds out. Enjoy the weekend!
Here is the link to track Thunderbird 1: https://www.flightradar24.com/THBRD01/27d93e4dQuote:

10:00AM since it's practice day anyway.
No problem. I will be down there for the practice. Would love to see them twice.
Are the A-10s on there as well? Also, where are they based out of? Republic or Islip? Thanks.Quote:

Looks like the A-10s already arrived at KFRG, BFCU posted a video on their main Instagram page.
Aaarggghhh, so nothing here until later, I guess I'll drive over to Islip. Thank you.
A-10s have definitely arrived. I have my scanner on. I heard them talking to the tower a while ago.
I see thunderbird 1 is flying with a stratotanker. Will that be arriving at Islip as well or is it just refueling all the thunderbirds?
Is there a runway the F-18s will definitely use at FRG over the others? With it being late afternoon, the Stew Leonard's seems like a good bet if they use Runway 19. If they're on 14, though, one of the parking lots on Broadhollow might be the way to go.
I think there is only 1 runway at republic right now. Usually when the blue angels come no matter what they use runway 32. Runway 32 is what is being used for the civilian flights right now. Usually you can park on new highway on the shoulder and not be bothered by anyoneQuote:
