Practice starts at 1200L and goes to about 1700L. After that, the F-22s, CV-22, 4 F-16s, T-38s, A-10s and C-21 will arrive.

Is there an approximate time for the performances (or even start/end for the overall set)? The web site only lists the order.
Thanks,

You're the man, that's just what I was wondering. Now here's to good wind!

Have some shots from today. Weather wasn't good. Hope tomorrow it would become better and sunny.

Three more and I'm going to sleep for saving energy. Tomorrow is going to be a long day.

Hi all,
On Sunday I will drive from Vancouver, BC to attend the McChord AFB air show. I would appreciate any tips that you have for me about what equipment should I bring, and the best places for shooting the action that will take place there.
Any other suggestions will be highly appreciated!
PS: Is it true that the B-2 flyover was scheduled only for Saturday?
Cheers,
Alex

I second that! Thank you very much! I can't be picky with that at all, ROFL!

The Super Hornet had hydraulic problem so that was forced to cut the demo. Bad thing is, I only stay for Saturday, not Sunday. I'm upset not to see the heritage flight of it with the A-1.
After 4 hours of driving, I'm home now.

The CV-22 showed up and is on the static ramp.
The F-18 was at .99 on the high speed pass. I'm glad they bring two jets. Hopefully we will see the whole demo tomorrow.
