Fresno State Flyby?

I'll take the blue angels but if a b1 bomber or two flys by ill be happy. At afterburner I know of no military aircraft as loud as a b1.

I was in the NE ANG back in 74. RF-4C; wow I think they had to dive to break the sound barrier

When I was in college I used to take my books to the north end of the runway and watch those things do touch-and-goes all the time.

How about a platoon of paratroopers jumping out of blackhawks onto the field? that sounds B*d*ss

I have a cousin who said he was notified he's being considered as one of the guys to jump for a Husker game this year, but he didn't know any specifics. Sounds like you may get your wish

The jump team didn't jump to start the show this AM, just one guy. They took that C-130 for a 30-minute flight and only dropped one guy. I was watching him climb and climb, and I saw these two dinky little planes behind him and I was thinking, "What are these guys doing? Taking pictures?" They were two of the stunt planes, and as the parachutist dropped they spun around him making circles in smoke:

They followed that up with a few other planes, then they let an F-18 Super Hornet rip up the sky for a while. I missed another GREAT shot because my camera sucks, but I got this one:

Are you at the air show out in Air Park knapp?

I work at the Pinnacle Bank out in Air Park, and it is a zoo out here.

Any accidents? I'm not too far from the road from the Highlands to Kawasaki, and there have been two emergency calls since the flights started today. People are rubbernecking at the planes and crashing into each other.

I havn't seen any on NW 48th, but since about 9 this morning it has been bumper to bumper in Air Park. I get off work at 5, and I live on 27th and highway 2, I'm praying my drive home isn't as bad as I am expecting.

Just for pure BA sound I always loved F-18s , nothing sounds as loud or pissed off to me. So the blue angles would be my #1 choice.

What happened to the F-22s?

The F22s are currently grounded by the AD due to malfunctions/problems with the oxygen supply units.

If the Blue Angels do fly by, I'll bet it looks something like this:
