A static F/A-18 Hornet is silhouetted in the sunset on the flight line during the 2016 Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point Air Show – “Celebrating 75 Years” at MCAS Cherry Point, N.C., April 29, 2016. The Marine F/A-18 Hornet has quick configuration capabilities useful for attack missions and  has internal and external weapons stations and a twin-engine which helps make it an all-weather, day or night Marine jet. This year’s air show celebrated MCAS Cherry Point and 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing’s 75th anniversary. Cherry Point is the perfect place for an air show due to its massive runway system, broad flight line and huge open spaces over which the performers can safely conduct their impressive maneuvers.
