Happy New Year.. Should be 1 or a couple Whiteman B-2's enroute Pasadena today.. airspare?
Parade starts at 11am local here and usually the B-2 makes appearance early in the parade but no mention of parade flyover.
Usually a couple KC-10's from Travis will show up just offshore to tank them as they hang around
till 5PM local for the actual Rose Bowl football game.

10:26am local FOIL-23 KC-10 # 86-0038 showing on ground at Travis.

SAM636 (20-1949) is returning from Las Vegas.
SAM541 (20-1941) returned its VIP customer from Jackson Hole, Wy about an hour ago. Dropped them off on 12/26 as SAM540.

Still awaiting the return of the Puerto Rico visitor.

Nice ultra rare addition this year for the OC Maryland airshow.. They sure can make some colorful smoke :)
Worlds largest jet acrobatic team.. Aermacchi MB-339 - Wikipedia
They are capable of refueling via drogue hoses.

Saw a blurb news report earlier today that US Navy finally releasing the USS Ford Carrier from extended deployment and back to Norfolk.

6 departed ACY this morning. 5 makos and one spad. You sure MAKO wasn’t a flight of 4?

Also do you know if they’re returning ACY after the sortie?

Rgr I wasn't here live to hear the MAKO's departed but listening to recording again MAKO-11 was indeed a 4 ship flight..
Most likely returning to A/C but will find out shortly. Now the hard part finding some A/A freqs for these guys.
