Tigerboys Annual Warbird , Antique and Classic Open house

Fri Sep 16, 2011 9:23 am

Happening this week end , the annual Tigerboys Open house fly in located at their home base at Guelph AirPark, Guelph Ontario
Taking place annually on the 3rd w/end in Sept for over 30 yrs , this is one of the last truly "grass roots " shows in south central ontario. So if you like no admission ( donation only -amount is your choice), no ropes, interesting ground displays, good burgers and spicey chilli, getting up close to and riding in antique airplanes then it is the place to be this weekend
On average between 30 -40 antique and classic aircraft attend each day.
We even have 5 pedal push biplanes for the little kids that want to play pilot.
For details call 519-836-6551

You can punch 'Skyway Drive, Guelph, Ontario' into your GPS or Google Maps search, etc.

The Tiger Boys' hangars are along the north side of runway 05/23.

Nick, Sorry I missed you. You may have seen me in the blue Citabria with the C-140 on the wing during a photo pass.
