Yes it is, and I heard F-35C Demo Team should be arriving on Thurs. around 5:30PM at ISP,
if all goes well with their long cross-country trip from NAS Lemoore in CA.
Well, just a week to go before all the Air show festivities start at Republic Airport!!
FYI - the FAA has posted the TFR (Temporary Flight Restriction) for the Jones Beach Show and the air space...
Glad I finally got my password problems to the site figured out and that the Jones Beach Air Show thread was started up already!
It's also great to see the 106th Air National Guard Rescue Wing Demo...
Yeah, the Thunderbirds departed on RWY 6 at 11:30, the (3) Growlers departed on RWY 24 at 12:50,
and the C-17 for the Thunderbirds from McChord departed on RWY 6 at 1:30 from ISP yesterday!
As of...
Newsday reported that the estimated crowd on Sat. was 100,000 and on Sun. it almost doubled as the beach and boardwalk

Hats off to Jake 24 for his great video coverage going back and forth between FRG, ISP and Jones Beach
this week catching arrivals, departures, practices and shows and posting them on Youtube!...
Read in the comments of Jake24's video that apparently T-Bird #6 had a bird strike on Saturday just before the Finale and returned to ISP right away.
I guess the Suffolk police were just being...
It was a good show and the weather was perfect. The 2 ship Growler Demo really brought the noise and it was
very cool seeing the F-35B Demo for the first time in person, especially when it was ...
Growlers did a break to land around 7:20 tonight at FRG on RWY 32. Unfortunately there was some last minute
RWY changes by the Control Tower that really messed things up trying get any decent shots...
Not sure about Sat. and Sun. schedules but these are the approximate times the Demo teams flew today:
Thunderbirds Diamond practice from 10:10 to 10:50
Growlers Demo around 11:40
F-35B Demo...
Also, forgot to mention they have a Blackhawk helicopter and Apache Helicopter already set up
on static display in front of the West Bath house at Jones Beach also which was very cool to see!!
Thunderbirds did a nice job with their circles down at the beach at 5:00, and you couldn't have asked for better weather !!
BTW, on my way out to the parking lot just after 6:00 I saw 2 Growlers fly...
The F-35B's just got cleared to land on Rwy 6 at ISP
FYI - Heard the USMC F-35B Demo team is due into ISP around 2:30 today.
I believe T-Bird#8 has arrived over Long Island cause I just heard a very loud jet on the south shore in the direction of Jones Beach !!
Just talked to the AAM and they're expecting 2 Growlers into FRG on Thurs. between 4:00 - 6:00PM at FRG.
Remember they're traveling cross country from WA state with probably 2 fuel stop overs so...
Good catch!
Hopefully the rest of the team arrives around the sametime on Thurs. inorder to make the 5:00 TFR at Jones Beach also!
