I want to go. The Harrier is scheduled to come Mystery Act #1 This act prefers to take-off and land over water and off of one of the smallest runways in the the world. The most famous celebrity naval aviator may have flown this in the sequel.. Mystery Act #2 - Not sure what this one is. Mystery Act #2 is recognizable for its sound, helps people in need and won't have any trouble navigating the airspace in front of the CIAS crowd. Stay tuned for details. We'll update you soon! |

#1 sounds like a Harrier (smallest runway) #2 seems like a Cormorant SAR Helicopter |

Got a friend with a Condo on Queen's quay with a rooftop terrace. He couldn't book a BBQ this year but at least we'll have a good view. Last year the f-18 just buzzed the top of his building. Damn that thing is loud!!! |

I really enjoy the F22 |
||||||||
|
|

Wonder if I'll be able to see it from my side of the lake I'd love to go, but I don't really want to spend 3/4 or my day getting there and back |

|
|||||||
True enough Well at least a few of the planes will be flying over my area to get there. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Euphoric just watches from up above |

Will be missing the show this year, but I'll hopefully be able to see them during the practice runs from my office building. The F18 buzzed our building a few years back. And for the record, if you want a real air show, go to Hickam AFB in Hawaii. F22's and F15's constantly in the air. I remember taxiing down the runway awaiting for take off, and watching an F22 taxiing down an adjacent runway and taking off, such a badass piece of machinery. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Was at cne today 10-2 and there some badass jets flying overhead. Practise rounds maybe? Sonic boom noise just awesome. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Was driving over the Skyway today and the Breitling team flew about 100 feet over the hwy. That was pretty cool to see. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I took a couple hundred but won't be able to upload until I get home Monday. Nothing spectacular this year. It's been a while since I saw an F-16 flying I think. It flew side by side with the P51 Mustang. |

While I was returning the Rental car in Honolulu I saw a pair of F-22s circling overhead. While I was on the big island I also saw a Blackhawk practicing touch and go landings in the town of Hilo. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I saw a bunch yesterday from the boat but the smog and rough waters kept me from staying. One guest was sick over the side. Visibility was reduced. I went over where waters were protected and did other things. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Like sexy time on the boat? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Nah, jumping in water from the highest part we can stand on, BBQ, etc. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Is the F/A-22 flying out of pearson or buffalo USAF base? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
No F22 this year. I think it only showed up for 1 year back 5 something years ago. At least that's the only time I saw it in TO. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
All this and still no pictures.... |

I think in the early spring, I'll make a trip somewhere in the US where I can see the raptors perform. |

saw some jet formation pass overhead (breitling?) around 11am this morning. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Here they are. I left before Snowbirds. I have seen them many times before and wanted to head to my buddy's cottage. Breitling Jet team I wasn't expecting this. I put my camera down and they decided to drop the flares. US Navy's F/A-18C. Notice the tailhook for the carrier landing? F-16 F-16 $ P-51 CH-124 Sea King This old perverty guy kept taking video of the crowds. He was waving the camcorder like a can of bug spray left to right for good 2 hours. |

Thanks for the pics. |

Looking back pics from 2014, this year wasn't as exciting. I don't know why Air Canada can't do a loop with their fleets. It will be really close to see a 777 or 787 doing a fly by.

That'd be cool to see, but nothing compare to the real airshows in Europe and Asia. Something like that can be seen in any areas where air force base is near by. When I was traveling in Korea, I saw an A-10 flying along the highway and F-16s were seen frequently. |

Nice PICs! There were that many a380 last year? |

The Sea King was hovering over the Rogers Center during the Jays game Sunday. Woulda been fun for them to land in the Dome for shit & giggles. |
