Heard a rumor a pair of Growlers were due in last night, but with the weather, I didn't bother heading over.
2 Growlers from VAQ-132 Scorpians are sitting on ramp by the terminal.
Here are a few quick shots:

Does anyone know when they are leaving?
Also, I overheard someone mentioning something about a Blue Angel due into Farmingdale today or tomorrow, does anyone have any ifo on that as well?
Thanks,
joe
Heard Blue Angels #1 and #7 are up in the Boston Area today doing their pre-visit at Logan,
so there's a still a chance they might do their pre-visit at FRG within the next week also
before they head back home to Pensacola for Thanksgiving :wink:
I stopped by this afternoon, but between the rain and some folks looking at the jets, I couldn't get any decent shots. After dark, the rain stopped, and the people cleared out...

OUTSTANDING SHOTS MOOSE !! :biggrin:
Really nice shots there, Moose.
Great shots Moose.
Thanks guys! All I heard was they are leaving Friday morning, but no details about time.
They just took off at 9:36, while upset that I missed them, at least I got to see one of them fly over. I heard the unmistakable roar and made it outside just in time to catch the second jet.
Flight aware shows them delayed until 10:18, so unfortunately that doesn't seem to be very accurate. I checked it earlier and it didn't mention that flight, unless something else showed up in the night that we were unaware of?
Military flights don't show up on FlightAware, but I see what you were looking at - that's really odd. Someone must have made a typo when entering the flight plan and never deleted it.
They cranked up around 9:20, and blasted off Runway 32 around twenty minutes later.
