There's an F18 Raptor US Navy FA-18 SuperHornet here for it plus the Thunderbirds. The F 18 just went overhead. Dang!! I thought the jets the Thunderbirds use were noisy [g]
I love airshow weekend! I never go, but we're close enough to the bay, we get to see the jets overhead from Thursday on.

A-10s flying over my house, which was in the air path for the runway, pretty much stopped me from wanting to see planes overhead. Those things are loud!
Even though, I still think B-2 bombers are just... pretty!
Makes me wish I was in the crowd for the Rose Parade New Years Day a few years ago when a few of them flew over. I'm just glad I was able to see it on TV...
I adore B-2s... So much so, I rifled through the bins at the store across from Soaring over California for years until I found a model. Which I promptly bought, and is now sitting in my room... It just calls to me!
And, every time I visit, I look for more B-2 models, keychains, etc... I just adore this plane!
I'm tempted to get into model building just so I can build and paint a B-2. That, and WWII fighters... My dad got me interested in those.
