As you may have noticed, when it comes to air shows we let our pictures do the talking and stay light on the words. That's still the case, but with regard to this year's Rhode Island Air Show we just couldn't hold our tongues. This was an AMAZING show!!! Jet team? How about THREE? The US Navy Blue Angels, the Canadian Forces Snowbirds and the Breitling Jet Team on their first ever American Tour all flew. TWO jet demo teams tore up the skies above Rhode Island as well: The USAF Viper (F-16) Demo Team and the Canadian Forces CF-18 Demo Team. Add in a combined arms demonstration, some of the best aerobatic pilots in the world (Sean D. Tucker, John Klatt and Rob Holland) and much more and it makes for one epic air show that we at APJ will be talking about for a long time!
