2008 Rhode Island ANG Open House - AV-8B Harrier Demo (2)

AV-8B Harrier Demonstration

2008 Rhode Island ANG Open House & Airshow
Quonset State Airport
North Kingstown, RI
Saturday June 28, 2008

IN THIS VIDEO, watch as this Harrier is put through its paces in its second demonstration of the day over North Kingstown. This was one of the loudest Harrier demonstrations I had ever seen, mainly due to where I was in relation to show center and where the runway is in relation to the crowd line.

Like what you've seen? Well, if you are interested in purchasing DVDs of specific aircraft and/or of airshows, interested in anything and everything related to airshows (where the jet teams will show up, all airshow performers, airshow reports from airshows I have attended, previews of airshows I will be attending, etc.), a much more easier to navigate "version" of all of my videos, and/or everything there is related to aviation - including spotting guides to my favorite airports and military bases and aircraft factfiles, please take time to check out Steve's Airshow World at http://www.stevesairshow.com .

I heard at Oshkosh it uses Water to Cool the engines down and makes it faster acts as like Nitrous Oxide but keeps the plane quiter!!!

Man Steve if you think this was loud you should try the Yuma airshow the key is to be all the down to the right of the crowdline I always leave there saying 'huh'? all the way home almost as bad as front row at a Slipknot concert!
