This show always has great statics. The AC-130 returns; I got to go in the one they had in 2022. The Storch is a really cool addition. I don’t think I’ve ever seen one before.

Re: 2024 Charleston Airshow “Heroes of Flight"

Parking Pass policy was updated. Once again, they are going with the strategy of only allowing one pass per order, meaning they want people to pick either Saturday Sunday to attend.

Re: 2024 MCAS Cherry Point Air Show

Some statics are now listed on the website. One that sticks out to me is the MQ-9 Reaper.

Re: 2024 USAF F-22 Raptor Demo Team Airshow Schedule

The pilot “intercepted” the drones, but it’s unclear if any were downed. https://www.twz.com/air/marine-corps-av-8b-harrier-pilot-downed-seven-drones-report https://www.forbes.com/sites/erictegler/2024/02/27/the-marine-fighter-...
