Sucks that Hawthorne got rid of that airshow. Great show. That is where I first got to see the B-2 fly over and to actually watch an F-18 do an arrested landing. But of course all the neighbors have to whine about jet noise and they got there wish.

Somebody shoulda told them that it was the sound of freedom and to shut up and enjoy it!

Stupid nimbys

Don't want noise?   Don't move in next to an airport.

The story I always hear it is more due to KLAX approach being right there adjacent.

So lets hope Torrance starts up it's ole Air Faire one of these years.
