They are doing some maintenance on Fat Albert so they brought in his replacement "Ernie".
Hope you feel better.

Great pictures Fighting_falcon_51
Thanks!
Kenny, that is a pretty sick set of shots you posted there! Nice!!!
Just in case anyone is wondering there will be no flight ops tomorrow unless Blue Angel #2 comes in or there are some civilian arrivals or media flights.

Kenny when did they break out of the clouds? Ceiling was pretty dreadful here in Manhattan.
Thanks, great pics.
Blue Angel #1 reported breaking out at 400ft.
They didn't do their usual formation arrival.
This picture pretty much sums up the conditions today: http://www.flickr.com/photos/3394985...57629838233732
Wow that's crazy, but a great pic coming out of the clouds! Are those pic through the fence or were you able to get on the other side?
My best shots of the arrivals from Home Depot. Go easy on me...these shots were taken literally 60 seconds after I mounted the lens I rented for the week, comprising my first go-around with some decent glass

Im sure Ill see/meet lots of you all this coming week, so pointers and tips are welcome :)
Anyone ever notice that every time the Blue Angels arrive it is either really overcast or raining?
I was by the tower earlier, number 2 still wasn't there ( I knew that one was missing when they arrived!) and Ernie landed at 8:16 PM and is now parked in the same area as the Blues, just further South. You can see him clearly on the access road just before you have to make the right at the stop sign.
A few from later this afternoon
