Here are a few more from today's event. With only one Navy aircraft on hand, the museum moved some of their aircraft out for display also.

Great shots as always (been lurking here for a long time b/4 registering)
If any update on the E-2C's departure time comes along passing it on would be very much appriciated.
Thanks
Will those Grumman birds still be there tomorrow?
E2 leaving between 11 and 1pm.... probably closer to 1pm
Thanks for the update.
Good call. After a looong pre-flight/warmup they taxied away from the Museum at 1:36 and 10 minutes later they roaredQuote:

Thanks for all the info guys I was glad I made it out to catch it. Post a few pics later on.
Great shots guys.
Interesting that this E-2 was from the USS Harry Truman. Last Aug 07 an E-2 crashed off the deck of the Truman
while launching at night. All 3 crew members aboard were killed and sadly their bodies were never recovered and an
adequate explanation for the cause of the crash was never reached.
Was just curious if anyone knew if NG is planning a similiar event again this year at FRG ??
Sure hope because it was too bad the Prowler and Growler had to cancel last year !! :(
