Photo Gallery: 2018 Bethpage Air Show At Jones Beach

The 2018 Bethpage Air Show at Jones Beach drew nearly 200,000 onlookers excited to see the U.S. Navy Blue Angels perform, as well as The Royal Canadian Air Force Snowbirds, U.S. Army Golden Knights Parachute Team, pilot Sean Tucker, aerobatic pilot Matt Chapman, Jack Links’ Screamin’ Sasquatch Jet Waco Aerobatic Team, GEICO Skytypers, American Airpower Museum Warbirds and SUNY Farmingdale State College Flying Rams. 

The beach was filled to capacity by 11:30 a.m. on Saturday, when officials closed the parkways and began turning people away. The weather was ideal for a day at the beach, with summer-like temperatures, a cool breeze and few clouds.

However, the second day of the air show was canceled due to rain and dangerous conditions for the pilots, which has only happened twice since 2003.
