At Reno on Saturday and Sunday (for now).

Has there been a harrier demo at Stead? There are only 4-5 locations for the demo this year so congrats RARA

There has been.
I'm thinking late 80's?
Not exciting compared to an A-10 or F-22 (only in my opinion) but neat and NOISY.

My first Harrier demo was at, then, McClellan AFB. Very impressive. Many people have never seen the AV-8 in person and it's interesting to watch their reaction.

I'm willing to bet there will be one more military demo either the 16, 18, or 22. A-10 heritage may happen as well. It's nice to know that there are options once again. Now we just need the 15 on the demo list !!

Harrier demo is a mighty cool thing to see. its noisy. F-4 kinda noisy. But the F-4 is moving and goes away. The Harrier will sit right in front of you making just as much noise as an F-4, much closer, for a much longer time.

I got too see a harrier demo a long time ago at a really small venue in England called the shuttleworth collection... a mossie did some flybys too.. Very cool.

Cheers,

Love the Harrier.Still can't forget the F-14 G demo in 1994? I know, they are all scrapped, but one can dream.

F-14 was always cool. I just wish they had stopped playing that damn song!

Doesn't it just want to make your run around the yard with your arms out pretending your flying.

You couldn't be more right: F-14's were cool. The movie and that song sucked turbine blades
