Air Force Week







We were invited to lunch and a relaxing afternoon yesterday in Cocoa Beach, and had the opportunity to see the Cocoa Beach Air Show - the climax of Air Force Week - from a condo patio. The USAF Thunderbirds performed in their F-16 Fighting Falcons, and there were F-15 Strike Eagle and F-18 Hornet demonstrations. A C-130 Hercules did a slow pass (what a monster aircraft!), and a C-17 gave a refueling demo with two Pave Hawk helicopters (middle photo). All this was in addition to the usual aerobatic teams and parachutes, etc.
We thank our host and hostess!
