Is it this weekend?

 

[Joker]

Is it this weekend?

I guess so. I saw the antennas up then saw the planes over the house today.

[Maw]

Is it this weekend?

Yup, we'll be out there Saturday and Sunday, full load both days.

 

[HB2Havasu]

Were going to the river this weekend to enjoy the last of the warm weather.
The HB Airshow is amazing and it's free. Highly recommended!!!

 

[mbrown2]

Gonna try and catch it Friday and then head to river...

 

[DBMX]

The HB Airshow is amazing and it's free.

Not as free as before..... The "GA" section now runs from the pier all the way to Beach Blvd.

 

[MPHSystems]

What is there to practice? Air is air and ground is ground. Try and stay in one of them and out of the other. I’m not sure what the practice is for.

I honestly don’t care. I enjoy the noise.

 

[Desert Whaler]

Just a guess … but maybe a few runs to familiarize the pilots with the lay of the land. And maybe a little ‘Rally Cry’, sort of a marketing / promo deal ???

 

[MPHSystems]

I honestly don’t care. I enjoy the noise.

I get it, they’re doing hot passes on American taxpayer money. I’m fine with that. matter of fact, I prefer it because all the money they spend here doing hot passes is money that’s not going to Zelensky the launder for the big guy.

 

[boatnam2]

Surprised how much seating area they have set up on South side for spectators.

[boatpi]

I am at the HB house just to see them fly over on Saturday. I’ll be on friends yacht near the pier on Friday and post.

 

[Echo Lodge]

I have been fortunate enough on two separate shows to watch it from the water. It is so much better there. The planes turn right over your head. And it's exciting watching everybody leave when the event's over it looks like everyone is storming the shores of Normandy when they're heading out to go back to their marinas.

 

[JB in so cal]

I heard the Thunderbirds in mission Viejo today. Wind going just right and it was pretty loud. I imagine it was during the 6 ship delta formation loop.

 

[Desert Whaler]

They were flying over the house today for an hour earlier …. Extra loud cause the sound bouncing down off the low clouds & they were flying well below it.

Hope Mother Nature gives the show a break …. Looks to be overcast w/ a chance of rain.

 

[Don65]

Looks like Trumps plane is scheduled to fly on Friday

thunderbirds 9:30 & 4:30

This ^^^^

 

[boatnam2]

I think you boys have a few more good weeks of mid 90's river weather.

 

[SoCalZero]

I’ll be out there Saturday in either a 25’ Donzi or my 21’ Schiada.

 

[Echo Lodge]

From the pier today

Off topic but the Thunderbirds are sooo sick.

Hopefully it’s not cancelled in the same manner the fake oil spill cancelled it 2 years ago

 

[boatpi]

Change in plans, no boat today. We booked a room at The Pasea Hotel. I will post photos if we get in at a decent time today, and of course all day tomorrow.

My buddy got the Penthouse at Pasea, rooms got a killer view. Can’t wait for the show.

 

[boatpi]

I would like to snag that next year. Wife thought we would be on the run this year, so I did not book a room until yesterday! Got an ocean front room. So just a few of us to enjoy. I could have booked a one bedroom suite two weeks ago for the same price. It is what it is sometimes, We are on the 6th floor.

What was the price if you don't mind me asking?

 

[boatpi]

The prices were less a few weeks back. The issue is you have to book a room for two nights Friday and Saturday cause check in time is 4 PM in the show is over.
I paid 4300 for two nights, and that’s on mobile as a desktop version is more money believe it or not.

We’re inviting a few VIPs we’re going to make it a right off.

Hell, for that kind of money I would have kicked the family off the boat for the weekend and would have taken you out there on our sportfisher.

That 14:01 USAF F-22 Demo Heritage Flight will be well worth the wait. The F-22 is the Baddest MoFo in the skies!!!

My favorite also, when that pilot drops out of the ski eye level along the cliffs, its badass.

Did anyone else see the Trump fly by?????

I sure miss sunny Southern California!

 

[boatpi]

F35 flies by at low speed with his landing gear down, retraction, landing gear, then goes complete vertical, from

like 220 mph.

 

[boatpi]

Probably because the weather in the morning looks like you’re about one hour behind right now

 

[Desert Whaler]

Fished out of Newport this morning in my skiff till 10:00 am.
On my way back in I was surprised how many boats were leaving the harbor to go watch the show.
Prob saw 50-ish boats full of folks.
Got lucky ... was at the launch ramp before the crowd . . . and when I got back, everyone was gone ! LOL.
