I've been out to NAS Lemoore a few time to watch them. I remember the F4's then A4's and now F/A 18's. We did a job once in Sunnyvale,CA and from the roof you could see Moffit Field. The guys in A4's were practicing their routines and would make their turn-arounds right over the top of us. They were so close you could read their names just below the canopies and look the pilots in the eyes. Way cool! |

there's a target store sharing the northern fence line that the parking lot is a very good vantage point for inspecting rivets.... |

Thanks for posting this. We dig air shows and have never been to one in Jax. Might be a great excuse for a destination ride. B. |

Hi Ken- Wow, that means there have been 4 airshows in 2 weekends. Cocoa and McDill were last weekend as well as Jax. Thanks for the heads up, but I have a 3 wheeled class this weekend . Have you been to the Stuart Fest? If so, how is it? Hope it is less gloomy than last weekend! B. |
