    Awesome, can't wait! Also, was the TFR in previous years for the entire duration of the show? If I'm not mistaken I believe it was only for when the big jets are in the air (an hour for the...

    And don't forget about the potential F22 and F35 flybys over FRG! I remember we got a couple of them from the F35 a few years back. Can't remember if the F22 flew past but I believe it did as well.

    Agreed, it was a great little show at KFRG courtesy of the Growlers! The touch-and-go's surprised me - a nice added bonus. Fingers crossed for great weather tomorrow and over the weekend!

    Chris - thanks for providing the TFR info. I actually looked about an hour prior to your post and couldn't find anything at that time. Hoping to catch a bit of the...

    Both days should be similar. If you're hoping to catch some of the flyovers, take-offs, and landings, then I'd recommend Saturday. The C-5 Galaxy is only scheduled to participate in the air show on...

    The Thunderbirds stage from MacArthur and unfortunately there isn't any public viewing. Most of the other performers will be based out of Republic, as well as a group of super hornets that are on...

    Unfortunately not. If I recall correctly he had plans to fly as a part of an aerobatic team, but his team's contract fell through due to COVID and they were forced to cancel everything. He even sold...

    Sad to hear, but CAP does do a great job supporting the show year after year at both the beach and airport. Enjoy the sights and sounds at KFRG!

    Correct, for the beach only.

    Bethpage just announced that the air show is officially 100% sold out (practice day included)!

    On my most recent check to the Bethpage air show website, I noticed that the 106th and Civil Air Patrol were removed from the featured list of performers. Hope that they're still a part of the show.
