  • Aviation video @ Fort Worth Alliance Airport (KAFW/AFW)! Filmed on 4/3/22, this features the US Navy Reserve VFA-204 and their F/A-18C and D "Legacy" Hornets making quite a performance as they arrived to the airfield. Family members of the pilots were present during this event, as two of the pilots had their Fini-flights while they returned to their home base at NAS JRB New Orleans.
    Strike Fighter Squadron 204 (VFA-204), also known as the "River Rattlers", is a U.S. Navy Reserve strike fighter squadron flying the F/A-18C/D Hornet. The squadron is based out of Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base New Orleans and is part of the United States Navy Reserve's Tactical Support Wing. VFA-204 is one of the final operators of the C/D variants in the US Navy (not including the US Marines), and will be retiring them by summer and transition to F-5F/Ns from VFC-13 for the unit to become VFC-204.

    Hey blue rocket, can you explain why almost every carribean/South American flight is being canceled from San Juan?

    • @BlueRockerPR
      @BlueRockerPR  2 роки тому +1

      I'm not sure what you mean, as I'm not seeing any unusual amount of cancellations out of San Juan. Thanks for watching!

    Hey Bluerocker, how come the fourth Hornet didn't land with the other three jets? Also, as of right now, this squadron is switching over to F-5s, and being redesignated as VFC-204 "RIVER RATTLERS".

    • @BlueRockerPR
      @BlueRockerPR  2 роки тому +1

      The 4th Hornet (a Super Hornet actually) was already at Alliance when the Rattlers arrived. It had maintenance issues. Thanks for watching!
