After they dropped The Horsemen 3-Ship F-86 Sabre demo from the lineup quite a while back I lost all interest in thinking about maybe making the 400+ mile each way trip to Rhode Island from Northern Virginia.

The show does not have a lot of vintage prop and vintage jet interest for me, I went to the TICO Warbird show in FL, the POF Chino show in CA and am going to Thunder Over Michigan, Winston-Salem, NC, NAS Oceana and Wings Over Houston to see flying warbirds this year.

Unless I'm with old data, I think all F-22s are grounded, except for a few Tyndall birds.

We had a great time as usual, Del's lemonade and an airshow!

I went to the ASB cookout on Friday, and we had Whelen/Goulian Chalet passes for Sunday.
We left after the Combined arms Demo, went and watched the BA's from Davisville Rd.
The 566 mph pass of the lead solo at 300-500' over your head, never gets old.

I didnt take alot of pictures, but here is my last one. Titled, The End!
