Very cool, Fred! Sorry I couldn't stay. I'll be out early in the morning, and staying out late at night, going to be a long weekend!

Great shots so far everyone.

No A-10 this year?

Im reading on here about a $10 fee, does that apply to parking by the 56th or just by the museum?

Sorry, no A-10 for the show this year. The ACC stopped all demo teams except the F-22, and there aren't any stragglers attending the show that we know of. The $10 parking fee is for Jones Beach only. Parking around the airport is free. Admission to the museum varies for adult, seniors, veterans, children. A full breakout (and discounted tickets with advanced purchase) is available at the museum's web site, www.americanairpowermuseum.org

Last night, the electronic signboard at FRG said BA Flight Ops are scheduled for 10:30am and 1:45pm today.

Depending on the weather, which is terrible right now, the Blue Angels will go up at10:30am for a familiarization flight, return and debrief and them go up again for a full practice at 2pm at the beach
