It was cool to see them transit last year though with all 3 Oracle Planes departing together.

Gerard, you are correct.. After the demo, they land the choppers and you can walk up and tour them if you wish. The lines are usually pretty long.
My Live Scanner Feeds are set to launch 5/24 at 7am! If you listen with WINAMP or iTunes, you will see the Alpha Tags from the scanner, so you know what you are listening to. If you visit the website from your iPhone, you can listen to the stream in the background - while at the Air Show ;)
As of now, I have FRG Tower to keep the scanner alive. As we get closer to Thursday, I will remove some of the Republic Frequencies..
My Airshow scan list is: http://www.w2lie.net/airshow
I will be updating my Twitter Status if I find new frequencies: http://www.twitter.com/w2lie
To listen to the feed, visit my site: http://www.w2lie.net
All the audio from the scanner is being ARCHIVED! I will have to upload the last 2 years of audio to the site this week.
Enjoy the show!

Make sure to leave 128.25 active, you may even want to set the priority for it. That is FRG's Clearance Delivery freq, but for the past few years it's been active as airboss freq.

Fighting_falcon_51,

Are the Blue angels oing to do a practice at the Beach on Thursday??
Ken
Are the Meet & Greet's open to the general public? There are too many things happening on this Saturday - I want to do them all!!
Is it possible that someone is doing a media shot right now?? I'm listening to a something interesting on 123.475 right now. They are aligning with the Statue Of Liberty, ESB, and other landmarks.
Again, you can listen to this all on my live feed. I will try and put this audio online as well

Here is a guide I made for some of the first time spotters at FRG during airshow week.
Top ten tips for spotting at Republic Airport during airshow week
1.Food/Water: Even if you plan to stay for a short amount of time it wouldn't be a bad idea to pack water and some food. If you plan to stay for the whole day it is suggested that you pack sufficient food and water. The surrounding area has several "fast food" places and restaurants but if you have a good spot, it would be a shame to give it up.
2.Sun Protection: One thing most people overlook is sun protection. At Republic Airport shade is minimal and exposure to the sun will cause bad burns, it is suggested that you wear sunscreen and a hat.
3.Locations: There a several places to spot at Republic Airport for details on each location read Nycaviation's Republic Airport Plane Spotting Guide.
4.Situational awareness: Republic Airport gets crowded during airshow week, it is a VERY good idea to make sure you know what is going on around you at all times to avoid careless accidents.
5.Law Enforcement: Republic Airport is known to be a spotter friendly airport, but remember to always respect and follow orders of law enforcement.
6.Intel: You can download the flying schedule off here or you can do the more eco friendly option and go to http://nyasinfo.com on your mobile device.
7.Supplies: Here are some recommended supplies that I suggest you bring with you: ID,Cash,Camera,Binoculars , scanner, Food/Water, and Intel.
8.Ear Protection: The jets may get quite loud, it is suggested that you use ear protection especially for younger children.
9.Connections: I will do my best to keep everyone filled in on the most current info regarding the airshow, you can go to http://nyasinfo.com on your mobile device for airshow info and I will also update my twitter instantly from FRG. You can also get the tweets sent directly to your desktop or mobile device by using Tweet Deck.Also you can text "follow nyasinfo" to 40404 and get live updates sent to your phone via SMS text message.
10.Have Fun!: Above all have fun and enjoy yourself!

Fred, I don't know much about you, but could you explain to me how you had the opportunity to take those shots? They are flippen awesome! I happened to be listening to FRG ATC today...was that you in the plane where I heard the guy say "the doors are open for photography purposes"?
Yessir... I am helping out Sean on a photo project. He likes my shots and I hope to be able to help him again. I have met him a few times and his is just an all around great guy. Not really more to it than that....Oh, and I just found out that the statue of liberty shot was the bad one...we did a second run because we were too overhead. Wait until you see the next one. :lol:
I owe everything to my great friend Larry Star!
