The 2010 annual Jones beach Airshow was the past Memorial Day Weekend.
As usual I went to my in-laws for the Holiday weekend but that did not stop me from
taking off Thursday to see the Blue Angels arrive.
Sorry 1200 wide...

Nice, but I thought #7 was the two-seater.
Is #4 a two-seater as well?

Great shots Dave. Thanks for sharing.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Usually you are right, I wonder if they had a replacement? 1-6 are usually singles, with 7 being the two seater used for media rides and as a backup.

Here is #7 from across the way. It is a 2-seater and sat at the terminal all weekend. It was used for Media Shots and Public Relations.

#7 Close up.
