Thought those of you in the SE USA and especially FL and GA would want to know:


Sat & Sun, Nov 5th & 6th - Jacksonville Air Show - NAS Jax
-- flight demos, exhibits, Kid Zone and all free
-- Blues fly at 1430 both days; Gates open at 0900; show begins 1000


This annual event alternates its location between Jacksonville Beach and the largest Naval Air Station in the Southeast. Always a great event.

Drive in: Use the Gate entrance of U.S. Hwy 17, just south of downtown Jacksonville. NAS Jax is right on the St. John's River


Fly in: CRG or HEG but a rental will be needed; JAX and you can take the Shuttle

I've heard that's one of the best shows of the season (as well as their last, isn't it?) Should be fun.

And welcome to PoA!
 
Just a 'bump' to serve as a reminder: As I post this, the Blues are flying overhead, doing their typical practice runs before doing their Flight Demo at NAS Jacksonville this Saturday & Sunday. Gates open a 9, a long program of aerial displays begin at 10, the Blues fly at 3 p.m. on Sat, 2:30 p.m. on Sun. Lots of static displays, big kid's play area, all free. NAS Jax is off U.S. 17, just south of downtown Jax and adjacent to the St. John's River.
