Hello does anyone know if the planes will be practicing for the airshow all day on Friday and Friday night as well. I wanted to take my son around 5:30pm - 6ish

They usually do not practice at night. I live within the flight path at republic and it would impact the neighborhood quite a bit if it was going into the evening.

Even Friday during the day it is very limited compared to the actual airshow.

They do practice Thursday and Friday from what I recall. They fly over my house and my parents, that is how I know. I am not sure about that time though, I feel like maybe the latest is about 4pm or so. You can call them and ask at the airport I am sure.

I do know that Saturday and Sunday , a lot of people hang out near the home depot parking lot off route 110 and watch them take off and land. I believe they have events where you can meet the pilots as well, maybe at the Cradle of Aviation???

Call the airport and ask them, I am sure they would be happy to give the details.


Edited to say: Bethpage air show site says full practice over Jones Beach 12pm to 5pm on Friday.

They normally post a schedule of practice times on a sign at the entrance to the airport.

Re: Republic Airport Planes

I just saw something posted that the USAF Thunderbirds will have a viewing at McArthur airport on Friday from 2 pm to 6 pm as that is their staging area for the air show

It's just a viewing, not flying or anything, but if you son is interested in planes, it might be good
