    I haven't been out to FRG for a while now... But I was wondering, is the airport still ok with people parking along the side of that main road (next to the museum) and taking pics from the tops their own SUV's?

    The fences are just a bit too small for most lenses.

    The weather for tomorrow looks like a big crapshoot, the B-17 still isn't in yet and the CF-18 hasn't been up at all.

    Honestly it's not the lack of fast movers that is making this thing lame so far, it's the wx that can't make up its mind thereby keeping everyone on the ground.

    At the beach, that's probably going to be a little short.

    I was at 500mm at the beach last year and there were still some aircraft that were too small in the frame
