Jones Beach Airshow (offical meetup thread)

[T-Bird76]

With the airshow this weekend I thought it might be good to see who's coming, what day, and if we wanted to meet up. I'm going on Sat along with Fred, Phil and Mel. Fred I'm electing you as the person to secure the best spot since I'm sure you'll be there sometime around 1AM :lol: . I'm picking Phil and Mel up so I'm assuming I'll be there at 8, no later. I remember where we were the last time so should be no problem. For others reference we were down by the shore line directly in front of the huge flag pole.

If anyone wants some info or needs to reach me my cell is 1-516-456-1499.

Sounds good, I will take a few blankets to give us some room. Please
PM me if you MAY go so I can give you my cell just in case. Directions
are very simple, Go directly south of the needle in show center and go to
the middle lifeguard stand. We will be just to the east of the lifeguard
stand. When I say just to the east...I may not leave room for people to
walk inbetween us and the lifeguards . I am thinking of doing a
sunrise photo shoot but I am not sure yet.

Definately going Saturday, probably going Sunday. I expect to get there early, probably not for a sunrise photo shoot, but probably not much later then that.

[Steven Holzinger]

I will plan on being there Saturday and Sunday..will set up near show center, preferably near where the Golden Knights will land on the beach.

[GrummanFan]

Ill be there Saturday most likely, so I'll attempt to join you. I hate standing still so I will probably be walking around alot. Sunday I'll be chilling at FRG. See you there!

Thats not the greatest of spots Steve, its very high up on the beach and a bit far from Show center.

Fred only you can make garbage cans look artistic!

I won't be getting to the air show, going to try to meet up with Art and Jason Whitebird if the sun is out, otherwise we got a busy weekend at work. Have fun!

[SCOTYDEMCO]

**WARNING, WARNING**

Just a head's up, word from the office is that if the ILS is NOT back up & running by Thursday, the Blues will stay at ISP!!!! (NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!)

Damn'ed Harrier

[UrbanExplorer222]

What about the rest of the planes at FRG?

[lijk604]

I'll try and find out. Something says the others will go there, the Blues are just a bit more picky about having an operational ILS.
