 Jets and C130 circling Albuquerque right now. Anyone know if some sort of show is going on?

On my way to Texas Roadhouse I saw a formation of what I believe is F14's flying over Southern Albuquerque. There had one single jet following. Further North there is a C130 flying a huge figure 8 going to and from the mountains. F14's are still up but not in formation.

Nice. Maybe I will take my kids. Was really cool to see them yesterday. The big bird was flying so slow it looked like it was going to stop.

Good air show today at Kirtland. Took the kid. Thunderbirds were in town. Also had a B-2 stealth bomber flyby, B-1 bomber flyby, and a Shooting Star demonstration. There was a parachute team demo before I rolled in.

No F-14s...they used to be a Navy bird but were retired about 5 years ago. This was and Air Force show. The Thunderbirds fly F-16s.

Enjoyed everything but the wand search on the way in.

I was at a picnic Sunday with some coworkers when we saw a stealth bomber fly over. We all stopped playing volley ball and watched it until it went out of sight. I didn't realize there was an air show that day. We were all, "wtf...is that what I think it is..."
