    I saw the MiG 23 (red bull) fly over. So I guess the times are right.

    There will be no Red Bull edge. Kirby Chambliss has pulled out of the air show to concentrate on the Air Races.

    I was at KFRG from 7:45AM to 4:00PM and this is what happened:

    No show on the 3 horseman and Ed Hamill

    They were right and the T-birds support plane was a C-130 "The Rock", The came twice and they are gone now

    The T-birds came today around 12:30

    I heard over my scanner that they were supposed to take off at 2 and land at 3 but they never did and there is a slim chance they will take off

    Sean Tucker took off various times today

    The air traffic controller was having issues with the planes because they were only operating on 1/19 most of the time, and the main terminal was limited to military aircraft.

    We most likely will not see the Horsemen until Friday a.m.

    I spoke to Jim Beasly on the WIX board and thats when he advised he will be at FRG as he is in the office all week. He couldn't provide a practice time slot for them.

    Anyone going to be around FRG tomorrow to catch the arrivals? I'm planning to head out there, feel free to PM me if anyone wants to meet up.
    Also; is it ok to pull over on New Highway and take pictures or will NCPD frown upon that? Or would my best bet be going inside the AAM (if there open to the public)?

    The SCPD lets you pull over.
