Avalon 3-5 March 2017

[Graham]

Attended Avalon Air Show Friday the 3rd of March whilst on holiday and have a couple of outstanding queries if anyone can help.Of the 2 F/A18F's on the flight line A44-207 flew but a tie up for the spare is required,likewise out of the 3 classic Hornets on the flight line F/A18A A21-16 flew along with F/A18B A21-106 leaving a spare F/A18B on the flight line with a red find flash.
I am also unable to read the very small serial on the AP3C involved in the tactical demo that someone with a better lense on maybe able to assist with.
Thanks,
Graham

Graham,
For the AP-3C see picture at Airliners.net, I am not sure if there were more Orions or if they swapped aircraft in that period.

Thanks Hans,
The AP3C in that photo was the one on static display on Friday.

The additional F-18s that flew in the 4-ship on Saturday were A21-30 and 116. The AP-3C in the atatic park was A9-751. The P-3 that joined up with the P-8 on Friday and Saturday was NOT taken from the static park. I would be grafeful to know the ID of this aircraft, as well as the C-17 that flew in the air power demo on Friday.
