Hey all...
The list I posed above is pretty much what your going to get Saturday. No other special visitors :(
We having something nice in the works as far US's display aircraft. I am not going to post in case something goes wrong but manangement in our OCC was very accodomating at re-routing the aircraft for us and is inbound to LGA now and will be on the Shuttle all day Friday. The only clue I will give is it has NOT made a previous kids day appearance. Assumimg this comes together I think most of you will be pleased at what we are bringing over !Quote:

Just want to add that 4-22 will be closed and based on forecasted winds good chance 13 will be in use Saturday making for some rare chances to shoot 13 arrivals.
The two F-18's are planned to arrive LGA on Friday morning between 1100-1200. I was told the crew requested in advance and recieved tentetive approval to do a "Very High Speed" Low Altitude fly by on arrival. This would likely be on LGA's active landing runway which based on forecasted winds is either 31 or 4. If anyone wants to try and catch this their ATC callsign will be Ambush 07.
I look forward to seeing many of you on Saturday.

The F-18s came in today, and WOW did they put on a show already!
Here's the article we put up about the flyby:

What amazing sound, and I loved that blue scheme. I can't wait to shake their hand tomorrow. I am feeling under the weather today, but I'm glad I had the chance to come out for a little to see this.
