The Aviation Nation air show was held over the weekend of 5th & 6th April 2025 & was blessed with the sunny skies & pleasant temperatures that the Las Vegas Valley is traditionally used to.
This was the second Aviation Nation air show attended by the Rapcon team & as on the first occasion 8 years ago, Nellis AFB provided a very impressive line up of combat aircraft in the static display from the various based units. The flying display contained a mix of both modern day & warbird aircraft, but undoubtedly topping the bill was an extremely dynamic Combined Arms Demo comprising A-10, F-15, F-16, F-22, F-35 & HH-60 with plenty of pyrotechnic flares ejected by all of the fast jets that took part.
Our thanks to the 57th Wing Public Affairs Office media ops team for their kind hospitality during this event.
