The Fleet

2011 NAS Oceana Airshow
Naval Air Station Oceana
Virginia Beach, Virginia
Sunday September 25, 2011

On Friday, the entire Fleet Flyby and Air Power Demonstration took place with 12 Hornets and Super Hornets, two MH-60S Knighthawks, and one E-2C Hawkeye taking part in at least one segment of the demonstration.  On Sunday, only a combination of six Hornets and Super Hornets took to the skies to fly only the Air Power Demonstration portion.  Once they were completed, I had missed two of the Super Hornets returning to base and it was just the worst time to not be filming, as the pyro guys from Rich's Incredible Pyro set off their wall of fire on that pass.  Talk about an FML moment!

As the weather worsened as we recovered the jets, turning NAS Oceana into IFR conditions, the last of the Hornets had to fly PAR approaches.

I apologize for the black or white blips in the video, as I still have yet to figure out what causes it.

If you are interested in purchasing DVDs of specific aircraft and/or of airshows, interested in anything and everything related to airshows (where the jet teams will show up, all airshow performers, airshow reports from airshows I have attended, previews of airshows I will be attending, etc.), a much more easier to navigate "version" of all of my videos, and/or everything there is related to aviation - including spotting guides to my favorite airports and military bases and aircraft factfiles, please take the time to check out Steve's Airshow World at http://www.stevesairshow.com .
