Re: Skydrive 2024 (Airshow London)

Man, I can't believe that the Golds were gone in under 7 hours. Took 4 days last time, I think!

I don't remember there being loudspeakers in 2023, were there? Getting rid of those things is awesome. My dad, were he still with us, would be elated! Good riddance to them. Let the jets do the talking!

Re: Skydrive 2024 (Airshow London)

Wouldn't that be awesome!

Increased international participation is always welcomed! I remember the good old days with Germans, Beligians (and the "Beer Herc"), British, Dutch and Ukrainians. Always hoped for Swedes, but that was just a pipe dream, of course.

Fingers crossed!

Skydrive 2024 (Airshow London)

Well, it's early days yet, but I figured we may as well get a topic for London, Ontario's air show up here. Tickets usually go on sale before the end of the year, and it's always a good time.

Re: Sky Drive 2023 (presented by Airshow London)

Man, those are some good shots! It seems like Saturday had a significantly inferior flying display. We got rooked in getting no F-15s, and already had no Growlers or B-2 and we lost our A400M. Not only that, but the A-10 barely did anything. Oh, and we were down a Snowbird on Saturday - was it back ...

Re: Sky Drive 2023 (presented by Airshow London)

Theives? Wow, considering how much there is to see at SkyDrive, I'm not really sure how you can say that! Now, I don't shell out for the photo passes, so maybe there's some shred of a sliver of a piece of truthy to that rant, but seriously? I paid for the gold section this year, and I'm looking forw...

Re: Sky Drive 2023 (presented by Airshow London)

These are awesome announcements, but I sure do wish they'd update the Website faster.

I checked this morning and was disappointed to see nothing new, so I came here and BAM!

I guess I'm old-fashioned, since I don't like social media...

Re: Sky Drive 2023 (presented by Airshow London)

I'm starting to wonder when we're going to start seeing additions to the flying and ground displays. I know it's not for another 5 months, but it's already been 4 or 5 months since tickets went on sale. I'd have hoped we'd have heard some kind of news on other acts by now. Anyone got any info? Of co...

Re: Sky Drive 2023 (presented by Airshow London)

Man! What a surprise about that Gold zone! I've been lucky enough to get first row in every year of the new airshow, including all Skydrives, simply by making sure I was there early enough. I was shocked to find my $200 wouldn't even guarantee me a shot at a first row... On one hand, just having a G...
