Sean Gustafson, a former reservist at the Homestead base who lived in Palmetto Bay, returned to fly the No. 4 aircraft in the Thunderbirds&#8217; diamond formation. &#8220;The diamond demonstrates the precision of the Air Force,&#8221; said Gustafson, the first Air Force Reserve pilot chosen to fly with the Thunderbirds since the team&#8217;s inception in 1953.<\/p>\n<p>My personal favorite was watching two different F-16 climb from about 100 feet straight up to THREE MILES in just about 15 seconds.\u00a0 If you want to feel power, there is no better way.<\/p>\n<p>The show continues on Sunday and I highly recommend it for anyone.\u00a0 Please note, there is a good bit of walking required to get to and from the flight line.<\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN\">For more insight into Pinecrest, Palmetto Bay and surrounding area real estate please visit <a title=\"MiamiHal\" href=\"http:\/\/www.miamihal.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">my website<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After a 17 year hiatus, the &#8220;Wings Over Homestead&#8221; Air Show put on quite a show.\u00a0 As a resident of Palmetto Bay, it was a short drive south to Homestead Air Force Base where around 75,000 gathered for the first day of the event.
