    My guess is that they're seeing Ed Hamil's Air Force Reserve Bi-Plane and confusing it for John Klatt's Air Guard Staudacher 300.

    I wish John was here this year, it doesn't seem quite the same wihtout him taking the News people up all week. He's one of my personal fav's in terms of civilian aviators but like I said, I think he's overseas defending freedom.

    His Website is:

    Friday is going to be one of the best days of the entire weekend. The weather is going to be beautiful and the aircraft will be running their practice show. You're best bet would be mid-day and you should see all kinds of action.
    EVERYONE IS THERE TO SEE THE SHERPA!

    Well, there's a full show practice schedule, so most of the performers will be in and out of FRG.

    Today there was a Snowbirds and T-Birds practice and the three horseman and Matt Chapman arrived, the times were pretty close but still off.

    The Thunderbirds did not have the meet and greet but after their debrief they came to the main terminal for pictures and autographs

    Later today 2 Navy jets came I dont know what type of plane it is but they are both parked near sheltair (They look like a Learjet but just not the same)

    They could be in for Fleet Week...usually have a few around every year. They do not participate in the show, they just make the tarmac look really nice. :mrgreen:

    No, two T-45s came in around 4:45 or so. The first was Rocket 4-0-5 who did a fast flyby on 1-9 then banked west and did a flyby
    past the Tower then landed 1-4. The second one, Rocket 4-0-6 came about 15 minutes later normally (LOL) on 1-4. Both are at Sheltair.

    Yes, there are a couple of T-45s in, but there is also a T-39 Saberliner at the far end of the Sheltair ramp, near the fuel farm.
