Jones Beach Air Show May 29th & 30th, 2010

Jones Beach Air ShowJones Beach Air Show May 29th & 30th, 2010

This will be the 5th Annual show! We never miss it.

Time: 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 on both days.

The U.S. Navy Blue Angels will be the highlight of the show. I love these guys! They amaze me every time. But, everyone that performs at this air show is amazing. Sean Tucker who flies the Oracle red plane, defies gravity and actually can talk through it.

The Blue Angels arrive a few days before to practice so you can head off to Republic Airport in Farmingdale and park along New Highway to see them in action!

If you get the chance, after you leave Jones Beach from the show, head over to Republic Airport because after they are finished with the show each day, they fly back and do a meet and greet. Last year we met one pilot who is from Wantagh,NY. They are really a nice group of guys! And seeing these magnificent planes up close is really awesome. You really see how powerful these planes really are. Visit U.S. Blue Angels Website for more information about them.

I will be taking lots of pictures and of course video. I do try to catch one of the planes breaking the sound barrier and that can be hard to do if you are not expecting it. I missed it last year and hopefully not this year!

Get the family together and enjoy!
