Re: 2024 CenterPoint Energy Dayton Air Show

Not saying any of this is true, but in a new TikTok posted by the official Dayton Airshow page. In the TV in the background you can see images of performers and statics, in some of the shots you can see NASAs Super Guppy, MQ-9 Reaper, and B-52 Stratofortress. If these show up for static that will b...

Re: 2024 MCAS Cherry Point Air Show

Can anyone help calm my nerves a bit on how the weather is looking for Saturday? Looking like some rain right now. How would that effect the show? Sorry if its a dumb question! Never ever trust a weather forecast beyond 72 hours out. You expect the weather apps or the meteorologists to nail down a ...

Re: Defenders of Freedom Air & Space Show 2024

If I recall, an EF4 tornado ripped through Lincoln and hit around 30 planes a the AFB. I heard them discussing it at a Civil Air Patrol meeting last night. I think you're once again mistaken. Lincoln, NE is not anywhere near Offutt AFB. Unless they pulled a Simpsons and moved the entire city or tow...

Re: First State Airshow 2024

Any chance the Osprey demo shows again? At this stage, probably not, and for a few reasons: 1. The base (and David Schultz Airshows) would have announced the demo long ago. 2. Dover wasn't assigned any Osprey demo, let alone any USN or USMC demo. 3. If memory serves me correctly, the squadron that ...

What EF4 tornado damage? I don't recall hearing about a tornado hitting the base in the recent tornado outbreak.

Re: 2024 MCAS Cherry Point Air Show

New seating option SATURDAY ONLY. Front row seats at far crowd right in the red area on the map for $30. Solid option for those still considering. Am I correct in interpreting that, based on the graphic provided, that the general public will have an obstructed view of the show line? I realize it wa...

Re: First State Airshow 2024

Looks like air dot show (insert puke emoji) is handling premium seating at Dover. They did the same at McGuire last year and from what I had heard, it was a fiasco. Because of the rainout they had to literally double the size of the premium seating area to accommodate Saturday ticketholders on Sunda...

Re: 2024 NAS Oceana Air Show

Perhaps the most important addition so far is the World's Largest Rubber Duck. I'm hoping to make this one. Put in for the time off, but it's during one of the busiest times of the year at work and I'm already using time for London the previous weekend. We'll see what happens. You want to talk abou...

Re: Civilian Airshow Performer Merch/Apparel?

Over the past 5-10 years I have seen airshow fans wearing shirts from The Alabama Boys, the Twin Tigers, Jason Flood, and Patty Wagstaff. I couldn't tell you if they were given to those fans or they actually bought them.

Re: 2024 NAS Oceana Air Show

First-time poster here - I'm planning my first trip to Oceana to attend the airshow on Saturday. I would really appreciate some advice on viewing aircraft movements and practice prior to the airshow. I plan on arriving on Thursday around midday and was hoping to spend the afternoon and Friday viewi...
