Re: 2024 MCAS Cherry Point Air Show
What gear do you use to get these beautiful videos? Thank you Thank you, I upgraded this year. Camera is a Sony FDR-AX53. Pretty much everyone here who uses it will tell you it is the best air show camera that's in the $1,000 range. That said, the version I received has PAL settings for some reason...

Re: 2024 MCAS Cherry Point Air Show
Final public USMC Harrier demo. Gotta get this up before the good videos come out. At the very end of this video, a cloud passes over and casts a shadow on the jet, in a way symbolizing the sundown of the Harrier. Crazy timing.

Re: 2024 MCAS Cherry Point Air Show
Day 2 was a success. Achieved everything I wanted to and then some. It was great meeting Ryan, Aaron, David (I think), and J for the first time. Again, thanks for creating this space for us. Came in from the other direction, and the A-4 and the VMAT-203 color bird were on display. Missed those yeste...

Re: 2024 MCAS Cherry Point Air Show
Today's tickets are being honored tomorrow. Hopefully, things will go better. I will probably dip after the Harrier as I got really great MAGTF and Blue Angel videos today. Also, I didn't realize this, but the MQ-9 is actually a Marine Corps asset from VMUT-2. Didn't know the Marines had those. Rapt...

Re: 2024 MCAS Cherry Point Air Show
First things first, traffic was insane. I think people without CACs were attempting to enter via SLOCUM gate and it messed everything up. I never got checked for one. I live 7 minutes away from base, and it took me over two hours to get parked. I left a little later than I probably should have (10 a...

Re: 2024 MCAS Cherry Point Air Show
MAGTF today consisted of the following (the show may differ): 1x F-35B Lightning 1x AV-8B Harrier 2x F/A-18 Legacy Hornets 1x AH-1Z Viper 1x UH-1Y Venom C-130J refueling pass with AV-8B + 2x F/A-18 I imagine the CH-53s will still participate tomorrow as planned. The Hornets did some really high spee...

Re: 2024 MCAS Cherry Point Air Show
Anyone know if the F-18 preforming in the MAGTF demo will be a legacy hornet? Also on the cherry point instagram they didn’t mention a AH-1Z or a UH-1Y helicopter preforming in the demo. Anyone know why this is? I thought those where staples in the demo! Either way cant wait to see the show! F-18 w...

Convenient timing. Wonder if it will make an appearance.

Re: 2024 MCAS Cherry Point Air Show
Saw the harrier do a practice demo this morning. The sequence opened with an additional high speed pass from behind the crowd. Not much, but at least it's a little more than a normal demo.
