I was there Friday, I had my yellow '70 Boss 302 Mustang in the car show..

Great show, a little to windy, did not get to see the A4, F104 fly..The A4 taxied out to the runway, but returned to the ramp...
Thunderbirds put on a great show!!

It seems that less and less warbirds come to the show every year. The ramp was lite of flying birds.

Forgive my ignorance: is the black-and-gold Cobra an active Army machine, or a warbird?

I have heard that a number of invited aircraft were unable to attend due to bad weather out of state blocking their routes to the show....
