Want a MiG or two to show up as well?

Maybe

That would be sweet though, I'll PM you the organizers info so you can get in contact with him about it.

Found out that RG Spitfire will no longer be able to attend due to prop maintenance, it will be replaced with their Hurricane.

Also, a MH-53 from the AWSTS out of Norfolk Virginia have been added to the static display!

Hello all - here are some pictures from the Windsor airshow this past weekend. The weather was not so great...cloudy, rainy, dark... Other than the weather, the show was good. Lots of different types of airplanes flying, with a nice selection of Canadian based warbirds . There were several no-shows, including the AWACs from the UK bummer... I highly recommend this airshow, and hopefully it will continue to grow.

This one was a first for me, very cool


Viper North MiG


Canadian F-18 (not the full demo, just passes)


Sweet P-51

Does anyone know if they've ever asked the Yankee Air Museum to participate? Thx

Great pictures! I'll get to putting some up at some point.

I believe they were contacted but had prior comitments for the weekend. Could be wrong though....
