Redline Air Shows — two aerobatic pilots from Ohio — fly over the beach at 11th Street during the annual Aerobatic Air Show in Ocean City, NJ on Sept. 13, 2015.
Thousands lined the beach and boardwalk Sunday to watch the 2015 Ocean City Aerobatic Air Show.
The crowds enjoyed a mix of sun and clouds on a cool September day that at one point had threatened rain.
The annual air show is sponsored by the
Ocean City Tourism Development Commission and the
Ocean City Hospitality Association. It’s a free show that allows visitors to watch from the beach at a time of year when the air and ocean are both still warm. It’s one of many “second season” events that help attract Ocean City visitors through the fall.
The show included seven performances featuring stunt pilots and formation teams.
