Daughter and her Naval reserve b-friend went saturday morning. The wife and I were in S. Tampa picking up some chairs so decided to stop by for about an hour.

Great show from any vantage point

We didn't brave the crowds, parking or security and decided to watch from the reception area parking lot

Beautiful day but the wind.....would not have wanted to be in thier shoes...uh...seats

There was a formation of a (I'll try to get this right), P51 Mustang, F?? jet and a Warthog, all tight and slow. With the wind and the speed I figured the 'stang was near full throttle (he was rear/center) trying to keep up, the jet was probably throttled back and working like hell not to stall, and the 'Hog pilot was having a smoke and listening to Buffett....tank busters! low and slow....what they do best
