The U.S. Air Force Heritage Flight is a breathtaking spectacle where history and innovation soar side by side, as legendary warbirds like the P-51 Mustang and P-38 Lightning join forces with today’s most advanced fighters—the F-22 Raptor, F-35 Lightning II, and F-16 Viper—in a powerful tribute to American airpower. Born from the skies of World War II and evolving into the cutting edge of modern aviation, these formations aren't just flights — they’re living, roaring monuments to the heroes who have defended freedom for generations. Every pass of the formation is a heart-pounding salute to the courage, sacrifice, and unstoppable spirit of the United States Air Force....

John Black flies his Super Decathlon to the edge of the envelope putting on an dynamic display and showing what you can really make an over-the-wing airplane do! John learned to fly at just 17 and his first aerobatic lesson was in the very same type of plane he flies for his air show performance. A retired Air Force pilot, John currently flies the P-51 Mustang, L-39, and AT-6 when he’s not gracing the skies and wowing crowds with his show stopping performance!...

Get ready for an awe-inspiring display of aerial agility as the U.S. Air Force KC-135 Stratotanker! Watch this massive aerial refueling aircraft perform precision maneuvers you’d never expect from a tanker. It’s a rare chance to see this powerhouse fly a full demo —don’t miss it!...

The C-17 Globemaster III Demonstration Team showcases the impressive capabilities of one of the U.S. Air Force’s most versatile airlift aircraft. During their dynamic performances at air shows, the team demonstrates the C-17’s agility through a series of tactical maneuvers, including steep tactical descents, short-field landings, rapid reverse taxiing, and precision turns rarely seen in a large transport aircraft. These displays highlight the aircraft’s unique blend of power, flexibility, and precision, emphasizing its role in rapid strategic and tactical airlift missions around the globe. The demo not only reflects the performance of the aircraft but also honors the skill and professionalism of the aircrew who operate it....

The REMAX Parachute Team is a highly skilled skydiving demonstration team, known for their precision jumps and dynamic aerial performances. The team has been a staple at air shows, sporting events, and special celebrations for decades. Their demonstrations often feature dramatic freefalls, high-speed canopy formations, and pinpoint landings, showcasing the thrill of skydiving to hundreds of thousands of people nationwide....

The 920th Rescue Wing, locally based at Patrick Space Force Base, will perform a Combat Search and Rescue Demo (CSAR) showcasing the wing's capabilities in personnel recovery operations, featuring para-rescue jumpers (PJs) deploying from aircraft to simulate the rescue of isolated personnel in combat scenarios. The demonstration will conclude with the PJs swimming into the beach and the helicopters simulating a mid-air refueling operation from a C-130J Super Hercules....

The EA-18G Growler is the most advanced airborne electronic attack (AEA) platform and is the only one in production today. A variant of the combat-proven F/A-18F Super Hornet, the Growler provides tactical jamming and electronic protection to U.S. military forces and allies around the world. Industry and the U.S. Navy continue to invest in advanced Growler capabilities to ensure it continues to protect all strike aircraft during high-threat missions for decades to come....

The F-22 Raptor is the fastest and most maneuverable fighter jet in the world today. The F-22's twin engines produce more thrust than any other fighter. Combined with its sleek aerodynamic design, this allows the F-22 to “Supercruise” at 1.5 times the speed of sound without using fuel consuming afterburner. The F-22’s unique thrust vectoring and advanced flight controls allow it to outmaneuver any other aircraft. The F-22 Raptor demo puts thrust vectoring on full display during its demonstration defying imagination as it climbs straight up, stops in mid-air, then reverses towards the ground before flipping the nose around in a summersault at near zero forward speed. The F-22 makes sharp, sudden turns displacing and compress air into vapor and...
