I've seen both local and military security forces providing security for F-22s and/or F-35s at civilian airports. The local PD folks love it because it's overtime for them; I'm sure the airshow has to pay for that.mleslie5 wrote: ↑Thu May 23, 2024 6:35 amLast year at the KC show, they had round-the-clock security for the 22's and 35B's and I heard it was mostly local PD.passedgas46 wrote: ↑Tue May 21, 2024 4:42 pm What I was told is that the F-22s and all variants of the F-35 require armed security at the jets at all times
In my years of going to this show (which aren't as many as some of you), the USAF demos typically take place anywhere between 12:30 and 1:30. I would imagine they'd take to the skies about 10-15 minutes prior to their demo times on the beach.Bulldogs851 wrote: ↑Thu May 23, 2024 3:51 am What time does the A-10 usually go up for the airshow.

This is a 10-3 airshow on Saturday and Sunday. The same times apply for the Friday practice and rehearsal. There's also a TFR for today from 11:45-2 and another for 3-4:30. Since this is a Blue Angels year there's no doubt in my mind that's for their survey flights and practice.

I'd like to say yes, but I honestly have no idea. Most airshows (even the beach airshows) typically don't provide any details about Friday's activities, and I imagine we won't see anything unless someone posts insider information.
The one time I was at Jones Beach for the entire weekend all of the acts did fly on Friday. All other times have either been just one day or just Saturday & Sunday.

Who and what is in the Legacy Flight? NOT a dumb question, I can't find a who'll be there and what warbird they'll be flying in formation with the F-35Cs.

If all goes well, the Navy Legacy Flight should be Louis Horschel flying his Corsair with the F-35C Demo team,passedgas46 wrote: ↑Fri May 24, 2024 2:47 amWho and what is in the Legacy Flight?
