The Fighter Factory now has a schedual on ther web site. I recall the Spit going, I think the PBY also. But I'd have to check. I really like it when you can see where a/c are gooing to be going.

They updated the site and it lists a Skyraider, AC-47, Lancaster, PBY, P-38, P-51, B-25, B-17. Does anyone know which B-25 and 17 are comming? I checked Yankee's site and it isn't them. David T? His 17 was there last year. :roll:

I went to the National Aviation hall of Fame Dinner and got to speak with tex Hill, Cliff Robertson and Dick Rutan. The old lady had her picture taken with the Whirly Girls. I also saw scott Crossfield but didn't get to speak to him. A reall good time. It rained alot so we went to the museumand I saw the spot waiting for Helldiver. Also they repainted the Razorback P-47 out of it's invasion stripes. Bummer

Ya it rained a lot on Saturday, but Sunday was great. There was a little flying though on Saturday. There wern't many warbirds but Ray Dickman's F8 was a nice surprise along with the F-86. The F/A-18F Super Hornet Demo team's WSO invited us out to get in the plane and we watched the air show from out there during Sunday. All the planes taxied about 7-8 feet infront of us. I will post some pocs later in the week.
