MiG-29 and Jared Isaacman Join Pacific Airshow® Huntington Beach 2026

From the edge of space to the skies above Huntington Beach.

NASA Administrator, astronaut and accomplished airshow pilot Jared “Rook” Isaacman is bringing the MiG-29 to Pacific Airshow® Huntington Beach, October 2–4, 2026.

One of the world’s most recognizable high-performance fighter aircraft is heading for Show Center—and it’s bringing serious speed, power and presence with it.

FROM SPACE TO SHOW CENTER

Jared Isaacman doesn’t exactly do ordinary.

He commanded Inspiration4, the first all-civilian orbital spaceflight, before leading Polaris Dawn to the highest crewed Earth orbit reached in more than 50 years.

During Polaris Dawn, Jared also completed the first commercial spacewalk.

Now serving as NASA’s 15th Administrator, Jared is an experienced pilot with qualifications across an extraordinary collection of military aircraft, including the MiG-29.

This October, he’ll trade orbit for ocean as he takes the MiG-29 over Huntington Beach during one of the biggest Pacific Airshow® lineups yet.

MEET THE MIG-29

The Mikoyan MiG-29 is a twin-engine fighter aircraft built for speed, agility and high-performance flight.

Known for its raw power, distinctive silhouette and exceptional maneuverability, the MiG-29 has become one of the most recognizable military aircraft in aviation history.

It is the kind of aircraft you feel before your brain catches up with what just crossed the sky.

With Jared Isaacman at the controls, Pacific Airshow® guests will have a rare opportunity to see the MiG-29 take on Show Center above the Huntington Beach coastline.

Fast passes. Serious power. Zero background energy.

A MASSIVE ADDITION TO PACIFIC AIRSHOW® 2026

The MiG-29 joins a stacked Pacific Airshow® Huntington Beach performer lineup featuring the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds, Royal Canadian Air Force Snowbirds, F-22 Raptor Demonstration Team, NASA aircraft, U.S. military demonstrations and world-class civilian performers.

The 2026 event marks 10 years of Pacific Airshow® over Huntington Beach and coincides with celebrations for America’s 250th anniversary.

Three days. One coastline. A sky that keeps getting busier.
