Re: Abbotsford International Airshow 2018

Yes it is just a flying thing. A navy or air force tacdemo usually won't be at the same show as their demo team counterparts. I believe static aircraft are totally desperate from this So, SAR Week is over, are we going to have fighter week and heavies week coming up? Fingers crossed. Was talking wit...

Re: Abbotsford International Airshow 2018

I am sure that the runway is the high-speed line. Taxiway is slow and the white containers are medium. The last 2 could be reversed though. The distance for the shoreline is determined by Trasnsport Canada or some other higher power. Pure speculation but I wonder if we will be getting the replacemen...

Re: Airshow London 2018

This thread is giving the Abby thread a serious run for its money and that says a lot. :roll:

Re: Abbotsford International Airshow 2018

and 2 Sea kings will be another first. Has this been confirmed? If it's simply because the CH-124 is listed as both a static and flying demo remember that typically the CH-124, CH-149, CC-115, and CP-140 are pulled off the static line to perform and then returned to static. So it might be just one ...

It will be nice to see a Skyhawk in the air again. I would imagine that there will be more RCAF static announcements , and 2 Sea kings will be another first. Hopefully the retro paint job will be one of them. I wouldn't put to much hope in other German assets coming. I think the A400 is coming more ...

Re: Abbotsford International Airshow 2018

Minnesota ANG F 16s would be nice to see. Don't think that they have ever been here and they have the Have Glass paint scheme which looks pretty sharp.

Who still remembers the post from a few months ago when they acknowledged Airbus was a sponsor of the show and commented saying that they were working on Fly-bys and statics?
