The additional aircraft are kept back at their home base - they will be swapped in and out of the formation as needed for scheduled maintenance, unscheduled repairs, and the like. They travel to shows with the 6 primary jets (single seaters) as well as 2 spares (at least one being a two-seater that is used for media flights).
Re: Jones Beach Airshow 2010
do u think there will be any more military demos
Re: Jones Beach Airshow 2010
Doubt it. Steve Holtzinger would be more proper to answer that though. That kid can tell you what a flight lead from a Guard unit in Montana had for breakfast on Thursday. Normally though this close in you won't see too many more mil jet's added. I would love to see one more added though. Eagle or Viper preferrably
Re: Jones Beach Airshow 2010
The ACC demo team schedule is out through June, all they have listed for JB is the A-10 team.
Re: Jones Beach Airshow 2010
HAHA Ryan.
Seriously though, Moose hit it right on the nose. I've been to the last two Blue Angels Homecoming Airshows and have seen at least two spare Hornets in the team's hangar. I'm hoping this year I can get a tour of the hangar and all!
I honestly think the lineup is solidified. Yankee Lady will also be making an appearance, if it hasn't already been mentioned. Would be nice to see a C-17 demo but I don't think it'll happen.
Re: Jones Beach Airshow 2010
Yes, it looks like all the ACC military demos are set for Jones Beach,
especially since the Air Force will be celebrating "Air Force Week" in NYC
later on in August at the Coney Island Air show. Besides the Thunderbirds,
F-18, and Harrier Demos already on the schedule for Coney Island show,
I'm hearing you can also expect to see the A-10 Demo added to the line-up
along with a couple of other Air Force aircraft flybys including the F-22 !! :wink:
Here's the recent Air Force announcement about "Air Force Week" in NYC:

Re: Jones Beach Airshow 2010
It looks like a pretty solid lineup to me, the only other performers I can see being added at this point is Matt Chapman and David Windmiller.

Re: Jones Beach Airshow 2010
Does anyone know if John Klatt is back to doing airshows, or is he still overseas flying F-16's? I remember he had to cancel last year.

He was back by mid summer last year and flew the second half of the season. He was up at Rhode Island.
His schedule isn't updated yet but lets hope he'll be added, he puts on a great show & Jones Beach was MADE for him!
Re: Jones Beach Airshow 2010
I'm trying to get a hold of him and get a schedule...
