Anyone know if the New Braunfels airshow is actually happening this year?
http://www.moonlightfund.org/airshow.html
I haven't heard anything, but read something on the AAFO board that makes me think that there will likely be an airshow next year.

The Moonlight Fund Airshow is done for in New Braunfels. Henry has moved to the Dallas area and the show is moving with him. Talked to Spanky in Midland and he confirmed. Shame that was a great little show for a great cause. Maybe we can pick up the slack in Hondo.

Actually, if you look at that AAFO thread there may indeed be an airshow in New Braunfels next year and a couple of the guys are discussing having a biplane race.
I did get an email confirming no Moonlight Fund show this year.

I heard at Airsho that the Ranger Wing as either all but folded, or has folded. The A-26 "Spirit of Waco" was on the ramp at Midland and I heard she is up for reassignment.

Hope she stays in Texas, but wouldn't bet on it.
