Two things to add here:

1). Legacy flight calendar says one will be there. Probably either the POF F8F Bearcat or Sugdens T-2 Buckeye.

2) sounds like to me greg won’t be flying at nellis. However I’m trying to confirm if scratch is flying instead.

A buckeye would be really cool! I've never seen one before, It'll probably be a Corsair though, maybe even a T-28.

Looks like we can scratch the Bearcat from the list.

Any one know a good spot off base to photograph the Nellis CAD with the flares? I'm on Google maps, trying to find a good spot.
Thanks

The speedway is the normal spot, I don't remember it being THAT great for flares though. Maybe further down the road or even by Nellis Dunes? Those are quite a ways out, probably too far, but all I can think of
