Question for @AIAS: a few years back for several seasons the Canadian Forces put on a force demonstration involving infantry, artillery, CH-146 GIffons, and CF-18s. I really enjoyed it, will it ever return to the show in some form?

Just happened to be driving by with my camera and caught the last pass.

Very nice. Sometimes you get a little entertainment when you do a drive by.

I figured this would probably cause a change of plans but that's quite alright. More for the fans to look forward to Friday!

I'm sure most already know what one of these statics will be but no spoilers from me. :lol:

AIAS,

Thanks to you for posting on here. Much appreciate.

Also the slick new website: https://abbotsfordairshow.com/

So, so excited and grateful to you and all the Abbotsford Airshow staff & volunteers. Abbotsford is the best airshow I've been to - and I've been to an Arctic Thunder, many Seafairs and now a Travis.
