I have no idea but I know they have a new trainer.
http://www.boeing.com/defense/t-x/index.page#/video-player/boeing-t-x-announcement-video It has been a long time since I have worked on any projects there but there was always a steady stream of F-15s and Super hornets both being tested and being flown in for service. I was lucky enough to be there when Jack Jackson took his last Harrier test flight. He set off every car alarm in the area. |

I used to go to the VP Fair just to see the Harrier. |

Nice. I worked at the North end of the riverfront for several years, and sometimes the owners would have a party on the roof of the 13th floor for the fireworks. It would have been a great place to watch the air show.

You're probably seeing airplanes in town for the airshow.

There are two T-X demonstrator airplanes that are mostly getting used for VIP rides now. Single engine, small airplane.
Most likely you've been seeing F-15's and F-18's. There is a boat load of F-15's on the ramp waiting on delivery, and I suppose it's possible the stock pile in Idaho is flying home before one final check out and delivery to the Saudi's. |
