Ocean County, NJ– On September 1^st and 2^nd, the Classic Jet Aircraft Association will be hosting their inaugural statue of liberty formation fly by photo shoot.  This historic event will consist of Eight privately owned classic fighter jets doing a formation flight through the Hudson Corridor and a very special pass by the statue of liberty.  This is the first time the FAA has ever approved a civilian formation flight of this nature.

Several of the jets are Russian / Czechoslovakian so the FAA would like to be sure the media lets the public know that this a planned event and not to have any concerns.  Practice flights will begin Friday August 30 and Saturday the 31^st.  Flight Path locations include New York City, Atlantic City and the Jersey Shore to Cape May.  

As the CJAA makes history with their formation flight, all local and national media is invited to be a part of this special weekend. There is already a commitment from a major network and several other news media outlets.  Contact us to arrange pilot interviews on our media days, Aug 30  and Aug 31st.  There is also a possibility of media ride alongs during the practice flights.

“A flight like this takes a tremendous amount of training and coordination with the jets and pilots involved”, says, Zach McNeill, President of the CJAA. 

“We appreciate the cooperation from the FAA and local authorities to allow us make history with this flight”, says Alex Brancaccio, Vice President of the CJAA”.

All the jets and pilots will arrive in the New York City by August 30.  The pilots have briefings and practice flights on the 30^th and 31^st.  Photo flights will occur on September 1st and 2^nd all conditional upon weather.

This is a follow up email to the one that was previously sent out regarding hotels.  This is the Jersey Shore and hotels are almost sold out.  I stress the urgency to reserve one tonight!  If you are unsure if you are going, reserve a room anyway!  It will be VERY difficult to get a last minute room!  You can always cancel during your cancellation policy.

** Please use your own judgment when reserving hotels and book what suits your own needs and preferences.  These are just suggestions.  I would, however, strongly advise you to stay away from waterfront hotel or along the beach because of traffic!!  The hotels below are not waterfront.
