24/25-09-2011 NAS Oceana airshow
Celebrating the Centennial of Naval Aviation, the 2011 Oceana airshow was a rather poor event. Off course the weather did not help to make the event a succes. The show on saturday was cancelled altogether, on sunday there was a limited show when the weather improved a little bit during a few hours in the afternoon. The static was very poor with even no Super Hornet present! BuNo's shown below were read off by ourselves and it is obvious that any additions and corrections are most welcome!

Hi,
Thanks!
Can you please confirm 2 as 163498? At Miramar it was 163768! Both are Blue Angels aircraft so it seems that they swapped an aircraft during the week.
