Re: Republic Farmingdale (FRG) Notable Visitors
Anyone get a shot of the other side of the special CF-188? It's got 4 Wing Cold Lake on top of the tail, but the engine covers are from 425 ETAC, which is the eastern base at Bagotville, QC. Since it's a representational, it's probably got Bagotville on the starboard tail, but I'm still curious. The all-grey -188 is also from the 425 ETAC (look at the top of the tail).

I saw the Blue Angels rehearsing yesterday over Jones Beach on the news. What time was the practice run?

I think that's because administratively, they're out of Cold Lake but I know they came out of the Que. I was speaking with a few of the team members and they said that they came out of Quebec. Their truck also has graphics out of 425 ETAC.
It very well could be like the Blues being out of Pensacola but in the winter they're in El Centro.

Re: Republic Farmingdale (FRG) Notable Visitors
I've been to quite a few events which I have considered "loud". A few NASCAR races, and some concerts.......but to have the Blue Angels 50 feet above you as they land on runway 32.....absolutely INSANE! I'm sure some of you guys where there at around 2:45 today. My camera got screwed up so I missed some great shots but hopefully tomorrow I will get some.
Re: Republic Farmingdale (FRG) Notable Visitors
Did the Blues land and take-off 3-2 today?
And any word where the Marines will be doing their demo?
I'm going to Eisenhower at 10 to see that demo which is over by 2 then head over to FRG hopefully
to catch the Blues landing (traffic willing, it sucked today coming back from Jones but it was a Friday)
and the 3PM demo.

Re: Republic Farmingdale (FRG) Notable Visitors
:!: :!: From June 7th-18th New Highway will be closed for RECONSTRUCTION :!: :!:
This is something that is needed badly. Throwing asphalt in some holes isn't good enough this time. Hopefully it will prevent future accidents.
