Crap, sort of. I'll be at SunNFun all day on Saturday. I don't think I'll be able to then spend Sunday up at Cocoa Beach. Now, I may have to since I can't remember that last time I saw a B-52 fly in-person.

Edit - since the F-22 Raptor is performing at both SunNFun and Cocoa Beach, there's no reason the B-52 couldn't fly by SunNFun, too. Hopefully.

I had been anxious to see the B-52 since 2003 and thankfully the Miami Beach Air & Sea Show (formerly Fort Lauderdale) added it in the 2019 edition. I missed hearing them TF33s.

I would assume the Thunderbirds will stage from Patrick AFB. I'm also assuming the Raptor will stage from Lakeland (Sun N Fun) since it's supporting both shows.I'm not sure about the civilian acts. Possibly TICO airport, where the Valiant Air Command is based and they are supporting the show.

Additional jet noise in the form of a USAF B-1B Lancer! :D

Dang. I better not have much to do that weekend. Saturday is day & night show in Lakeland at Sun N Fun. I'm definitely hitting Cocoa Beach on Sunday, assuming the bombers fly on Sunday, too.
