Guys . . . get one of those transparent/see-through bags that are now mandatory at baseball/football games. Security people love it.
They will thank you for it.
There are several sizes available.
I'm not going to trust several thousand dollars worth of camera equipment to a plastic backpack. I just wish the people running the show/security actually cared enough to make clear and consistent rules. Posting the nonsense they have now just causes confusion...as we've seen in the past with different security personnel enforcing the rules differently...and frustration among the attendees.

They added F-22 to the performers list. The F-22 demo team is scheduled to be in Reno that weekend. So this is probably just a flyby of an F-22 from Langley?

Few years ago when I went to Andrews, the lady at the security check said my lens (a Sigma 160-600 Sports) was too big and I wasn't allowed to bring it in. I told her their website didn't mention restriction on lens size, she just said no. I just went to a different line to get in, no problem with folks manning that line.

Haven’t seen any mention of the B-2 and B-1 flyover lately. Hopefully they’re still doing it

Not only do we now have both the B-1B Lancer and B-2 Spirit showing in the aerial performers section of the show's website, but we also have on there a USMC F-35B Lightning II.

That's one crazy good lineup! The best one in the 60 or so airshows I have been to.

I think Andrews wins out over Oceana that weekend.

What happened to the C-32 and C-37 that Schultz Air Shows had said would be participating in the flying show?
