2009 MCAS Miramar Airshow - Shockwave Jet Truck



Shockwave Jet Truck

2009 MCAS Miramar Airshow
MCAS Miramar
Miramar, California
Friday October 2, 2009

IN THIS VIDEO, Kent Shockley fires up the newly rebuilt Shockwave Jet Truck and takes it down Runway 24R at Miramar for a dry run. This newly rebuilt Shockwave features many more and much-improved safety features than the original. It is those safety features that were on the original Shockwave that Kent is able to bring to you this "second-generation" Shockwave.

I apologize for any bad color and/or vertical lines or American flag intrusion that may or may not be in this video. Unfortunately there were American flags that got in the way of the video during some critical parts of the videos and I have had some camera trouble throughout the weekend.

If you are interested in purchasing DVDs of specific aircraft and/or of airshows, interested in anything and everything related to airshows (where the jet teams will show up, all airshow performers, airshow reports from airshows I have attended, previews of airshows I will be attending, etc.), a much more easier to navigate "version" of all of my videos, and/or everything there is related to aviation - including spotting guides to my favorite airports and military bases and aircraft factfiles, please take the time to check out Steve's Airshow World at http://www.stevesairshow.com .

Trucking Adds 3,100 Jobs; Unemployment Rate Declines to 9%


The unemployment rate declined to a six-month low of 9% in October while the economy added 80,000 jobs, including 3,100 trucking jobs, the Labor Department said Friday.

Total transportation and warehousing sector employment rose by 9,400 workers, Labor figures showed.
Economists had projected the unemployment rate would remain at 9.1%, Bloomberg reported. The number of jobs gained was below economists’ forecasts of 95,000, Bloomberg said.

The payrolls gain followed a revised 158,000 increase in September that was higher than originally reported.

The payroll and unemployment figures are obtained by separate surveys, with payrolls from a survey of employers and the unemployment rate from a survey of households.
Factory employment rose by 5,000, the first increase in three months, while service employment climbed by 90,000 jobs.

Private hiring rose by 104,000 jobs after a revised gain of 191,000 the previous month. Government payrolls decreased by 24,000.
