We live close to Melbourne airport in Florida and this weekend a big air show is scheduled. All week airplanes have been practicing different formations in the air.
It is a very strange feeling having these planes right over our house. So far it looks like rain is scheduled but I hope not as some people look forward to this show every year.
Luckily for us, we can watch it right from our lawn chairs in the back of our house.

That is very cool. I sure there must be a lot of people attend it. People love airshows. I hope the rain holds off for all of you.

It must be rather noisy if they are practicing a great deal overhead. My daughter lives close to an airfield and I was treated to a free show from her back garden. It was very exciting and little bit scarey because they came rather low,

Is the air show for propeller planes (such as old WWII aircraft), or is for jet planes?
