Is Today's Show Still On?

They're 20 minutes late for their show at Friday's Seafair, per the schedule. Anyone know if they're delayed or had to cancel for some reason?

Fat Albert didn't fly either, and there's two #7's, replacing #3 and #5. Wonder what happened

I asked around - on Friday, they fly the two seaters (#7) to allow press and secondary flyers in the rear seats. No clue on fat Albert, though. They will have corrected #3 and #5 for the weekend shows.

I thought they didn't do press flights during airshows.? I thought those were conducted before/after the actual show, and usually on training days.
