Very nice. Looks like the weather started off a little sketchy then improved as the day went on.

What happened to the A-10 on Saturday ? I know it had a technical difficulty and had to cancel its display, any idea what went wrong ?

The A-10`s flight backup systems had problems so it cut its show short.
