I’ve been to NAF El Centro a few times. It’s quite the place 😂

A little known fun fact, El Centro is Spanish for The Centro. And yes, 'tis a horrible place.

Tomcat trying to demo high-alpha while the Hornet looks on in disdain.

I wonder what the backseater does during these demos. Like hop in and enjoy the ride, bud.

The backseater calls out speeds and choreography like rolls and wingsweep angles. He also communicates with the ground if that’s apart of the airshow

It's all about recruiting, he's selling a cool job that only nerds know what's actually happening.

This is super cool! Sucks they closed this base, the air shows were so cool, and convenient! Went by last summer and they're already developed most of the land, was wild to see!

The base is still open, I was there 4 months ago for a visit
