Where to see Thursday’s 24-jet military air show from Brooklyn
Brooklynites will be treated to a spectacular military air show on Thursday morning, when 24 jets trailing red, white and blue smoke will zoom in formation down the Hudson River towards the Statue of Liberty.
Make sure you’re in position before the 9:30 a.m. start time so you don’t miss the U.S. Navy Blue Angels, U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds, the F-35 Lightning II Demo Team and the Royal Air Force Red Arrows from the United Kingdom in this lightning-fast, four-team precision demonstration. The show will last all of ten minutes.
This is the first time that all four military flight teams have performed their death-defying feats together at the same time, and it’s been more than a decade since the U.K.’s Red Arrows came to North America.
