Sounds like the Thunderbirds just left and they are showing on flightradar heading to Colorado

Yeah the number 6 jet came in on the right downwind and landed on Runway 24 while the other 5 jets landed on Runway 6.

Sounds like the Thunderbirds had issues both days. Yesterday (Sunday) I heard one and went outside. I live just north of Islip and was able to see...

Friday Practice show and Growlers arrival at FRG

Hats off to Jake 24 for his great video coverage going back and forth between FRG, ISP and Jones Beach this week catching arrivals, departures,...

Read in the comments of Jake24's video that apparently T-Bird #6 had a bird strike on Saturday just before the Finale and returned to ISP right away....

I’m guessing they didn’t feel like enforcing it. Anyway it looked like the thunderbirds had another jet return early today saw it land at ISP before...

So is Islip now spotter friendly? Looks like a good group along the fences

It was a good show and the weather was perfect. The 2 ship Growler Demo really brought the noise and it was very cool seeing the F-35B Demo for the...

Good show today, seems like the T-Birds didn’t perform a few maneuvers and their last pass only had 5 jets. Also it was nice to see the Skytypers...

Growlers did a break to land around 7:20 tonight at FRG on RWY 32. Unfortunately there was some last minute RWY changes by the Control Tower that...

I was at Islip today and listening to tower freq. The F-35 had a landing gear indicator light come on as well.

Just saw the Growlers (I assume) fly by in Lido Beach

Not sure about Sat. and Sun. schedules but these are the approximate times the Demo teams flew today: Thunderbirds Diamond practice from 10:10 to...

Not sure, but I did notice a trail of smoke/fuel coming from the exhaust when he was starting to transition into the hover.

What a perfect day for practice. Does anyone know why the f35 cut their practice short?

Anyone have the flying schedule for Saturday and Sunday yet? Also, where is the best spot for the growler/ F35 and T-Bird departures/ recoveries on...

Anyone know what time the F-35s' and Growlers will take off for Practice tomorrow at Islip?

Thunderbirds did a nice job with their circles down at the beach at 5:00, and you couldn't have asked for better weather !! BTW, on my way out to...

Any chance the F-35s/Growlers will do circles during the TFR at 5 if the T-Birds are late?

I saw the 35s'

The F-35B's just got cleared to land on Rwy 6 at ISP

Tnx!! Let’s hope they hang by the beach for a quick practice. Possible??

Looking at Flightaware, The Tbirds are enroute and should be here around 5pm, The C-17 Around 5:25 or so.

Thanks for the info. My only experience watching planes at ISP is when I’m flying Southwest or dropping the wife off at Southwest. Is there a “best”...
