Anyone been to the Jersey show? Looking for viewing spot advice.

The bay is a huge area and I’m guessing it’s going to get busy with spectators as it’s free...

I stand corrected,it was actually the Viggen I saw briefly....

No typhoon at all that I saw.

Still enjoyed the show , the display from the PItt special was something else,never seen a plane thrown around like that before .

Love the Draken.
Thanks.....
Very loud, and VERY fast...dont know if the Vig can go quicker, but he ran the Draken over the front of the line and up about as fast as Ive ever seen anything go - and Ive been Drag racing and seen Sammy Millers Rocket car....
