I know Lakehurst is an engineering/test center, but do they get any aircraft operating in and out of the base on a regular basis.
Any flights from Willow Grove, Oceana, or Patuxent river?.. Or how about Mcguire, any flights from Mcguire visit or do touch and go's at Lakehurst.
I went to airshows at Lakehurst in '83 and the most recent one last Summer, it's a great facility with lots of history. I wish it got used more on a regular basis by Navy or even Air Force aircraft, I would Love to watch some flying in/out of there.
Anything C-130s, P-3s, F-18s, KC-135s or even C-141s.

I think there's some reserve helicopter squadrens or something based at Willow Grove, and Pax River gets tons of stuff-Navy flight testing school is based there, so I'm sure all kinds of weird things fly around out there. Wish I knew more about it.
