yea where are they???
and there is no real picture of "dusty"?
FYI- I was talking to the Disney Promotion guys at their "Planes" booth at the Beach today and they said they were still hoping "Dusty", the AT-301, would arrive sometime later today from Texas weather permitting. They also said the reason why you haven't seen any pics of the real aircraft yet is because they just finished painting it last week.:biggrin:

Great shots posted by all from FRG where all the action seems to have been for the most part (except for a few photos taken at JB on Friday practice). Has anyone posted a roll call of who plans on going to the beach for the Sunday show? I plan on being there. Probably show center partway down the beach if I get there early enough. I think there will be a good crowd despite the moderate temps (mid-60s). Ill be wearing my JFK Airtrain baseball cap-Grey.

Please post here if you are going or send me a tweet. Maybe I could meet some of you to say hi. I don't have any fancy equipment. Mostly go for the experience.

I'll be at the beach as well. I normally prefer to go to the beach on Saturday and spend Sunday at the airport, however, the weather has made that impossible this year. Hopefully I'll be able to catch the CF-18's depart Sunday evening or Monday since their departure time in unknown - to me at least! I don't know what I'll be wearing, so don't expect to meet any new faces from here at the beach. I always try to be at show center even though it can be very crowded and tomorrow may be jammed pack, even without all of the thunder, so get there early for a good spot.

It will be interesting if they still attempt to have the Miss Geico catamaran vs. Geico Skytyper race tomorrow because with the high winds the seas should be pretty rough and Miss Geico may get some major "air" time !! Ha !! :biggrin:

I'll probably be at Jones Beach tomorrow too (show center down in the sand) with a Lowepro bag and a grey shirt. If anyone wants meet up, feel free to pm me.
Fingers crossed for good weather!

Billbo1970

2013-05-26, 06:13 AM

I'll try & look for ya Nikon. I'm usually show center, up by the water. Don't know how close to the water I'll want to be today, so maybe back by where the Knights usually land.

I normally go to the museum Sat, the beach Sun, then back to the museum Mon to watch the departures.

Like I said earlier, I'll have a black F/A-18 Hornet T-Shirt on, but it may be covered by a blue jacket if it's too chilly. Let's just all ask anyone lugging a DSLR if they're from NYC Aviation Forum :cool:

I will be pretty easy to spot regardless, I'm 6' and my wife is 4'10", so look for that :tongue:

I was extremely disappointed with that performance as well. He only did a few passes, NONE with afterburner, and none very low. The freakin Extras were louder than he was! :mad: I mean, I'm glad they came & all, but really! They have extra fuel from not performing yesterday, don't they?! :tongue:

Schumer did make an appearance. If you were near show center, to the right of where the sky-divers would have landed, and heard a loud BOOOOOO.... that was me, LOL

I agree, CF-18 was a bit of a letdown. That being said, TOP PERFORMANCE IMO, hands down to Chapman & Holland! They flew the balls of the planes out there in tough winds. Awesome job!!!

Photo Pass. One of the few good opportunities to shoot her.

These guys are the Rock Stars! What a performance today!

I also LOVED the Raiders. They've always been one of my favorites and it was great to see them on my home turf for a chance. Hope they're back again next year!

Nice thatl the Catalina flew in the FlyBy of the AAM ships!! I was more excited seeing that fly than the CF-18. I was at Republic today and it was pretty windy there so I can imagine at the beach!! When the CF-18 returned they did one high flyover of 3-2 then back for low flyover of 1/1-9. The Catalina departed around 3:15 and they flew 4 flybys before heading out south to JFK airspace!! That was very cool and so great to see! Never have seen one flying before!!
Oh man I was in the car listening on the radio when Chucky came on!! Really pissed me off! Thank you Kenny!! Was wondering if anyone spoke up!!
Very wierd week with the sequester and then the weather putting a damper on excitement but GREAT JOB by all to even get an airshow up and running!!
Now....anyone with any idea when CF-18s wioll be heading out? Thanks.

GrummanFan

2013-05-26, 10:17 PM

The wind was a pain, but no heat haze, and no traffic! Holland and Chapman also stole the show for me, and seeing the Catalina fly made it more than worth it.

I can't edit much until I get home to my good monitor, but I don't have the glass for the beach anyway, so whatever. Here's hoping for a good time at the museum tomorrow!

Did anyone else get a copy of the 10th anniversary DVD? It's a nice little behind-the-scenes look at the air show, save for some awkward sounding interviews and a hand full of spelling mistakes (who's this John Clatt they refer to?).

Fred, John, Moose, Kenny, Steve, Tim, and Rick for the laughs and the viewing hookups. We MUST do this again real soon and Fred, I'll remember the beers this time!

Very impressive take-off, low, loud and fast and it looked like Hornet 1 did a little tail wave for a bunch of guys standing by the numbers of 1. Absolutely beautiful day with the C-47 and B-17 up and down all day and a number of other AAM aircraft taking to the skys for Fly Overs!!

I was surprised and very excited when I saw the Catalina was flying with the other warbirds. I saw the Catalina in the air again while I was driving on Wantagh State Pkwy after the show. Although I would like to have another good look of her in the air, I did not want to cause an accident on the highway. :eek:

FYI- after the winds changed in the afternoon they actually departed on Rwy 19 toward Rte. 109 :wink:

Sorry Chris, They took off towards the 1 end, my bad for the confusion. I now know for future reference the end that they start at is the runway number, thank you for clarifying that. I did see you today on top of your truck this morning, but you left shortly afterward and I didn't see you again.

Great shots everyone, thanks for sharing!

Moose, I would totally call that Hornet comment a low blow if it wasn't so damn true for the legacy birds...

It was an F-18 - if he got into the burner, he would have had to hit a tanker on the way back to FRG... }:-O
You telling me that airplane gets less than 15mins on a tank if it hits the burner?

I don't buy that excuse at all... The Angels hit the burner... A LOT, the USN Super Hornet hits it, even the freakin raptor hits the burner when it comes. Also, they didn't fly Saturday, so they should have had some extra fuel available...

Lighten up, Francis. Hornets are notorious for their short range and thirsty engines, I was having a little fun at their expense.

You can only fit so much in the airplane. If they had flown on Saturday, they would have refueled the jet before Sunday's flight, so the fact that they didn't fly Saturday has nothing to do with how much fuel they can carry on Sunday.

I was referring to the the Hornet's need to refuel before it gets to the end of the catapult during carrier ops.

So does that mean they needed to do a refueling stop before getting to Quebec?
