Weather says should be sunny for Saturday. Good news for the show to go on?

Not sure if anyone in here attended winter training ever, but some idiot photographers posted viral videos frequently showing a low pass from last year and it reached the higher ups. The base CO was commanded to shut it down. The person responsible stood right underneath the flight line on a takeoff, parked his 15 foot tall sprinter van right there and stood on the roof of it. Video’d it and posted it. Multiple people there had told him to move his van, and to not stand on the roof. And many people told him not to post it. He shrugged them off any posted anyway. The video clocked 45 million views on instagram. Now its closed and gone for everyone. He just cared about getting likes and shares. A pathetic human. Anyways, Thats what happened. Bad day in the blues community. I went to el centro for 6 years. Not anymore.

I want to go Saturday and I’m interested in seeing all the aircraft. I’m curious if I’ll miss out on seeing some by going Saturday.

I remember they'd typically do a practice run around 3PM and I leave around 10AM on the last day. I can't remember exactly the schedule. I live right where they take off near Oakland Airport so I definitely want to see it.
