Still time to add some more attractions but agreed, disappointed.
As far as the Snowbirds and CF-18 go there have been several instances of them showing up and doing "non aerobatic" shows of sorts. If the lack of an approved aerobatic box is indeed the issue. Who knows

Re: Abbotsford International Airshow 2022
US Navy F-35C demo team could cover that base. Or one of the KLU Dutch F-35's that are still around in California.
Soon we're gonna be sick of the "Battle Penguin" since so many NATO countries are buying them.

Re: Sky Drive 2021 (presented by Airshow London)
Can any show in Canada have a GOOD weather forecast??
This is ridiculous. Hopefully it stays relatively dry.

Re: Sky Drive 2021 (presented by Airshow London)
High risk high reward way to run an Airshow for sure. Military will always just pull your performers/statics with zero notice.. Especially flybys and non-official demo teams. Still should be a great show. I've wondered why since there's the T33 Red Knight based in London, the ITPS, Waterloo warbirds...

Re: 2021 Abbotsford International Airshow
Boy bad weather can make for some great videos! Awesome work everyone.
Thanks AIAS for toughing it out through the weather and pandemic and gifting us a great airshow we so desperately wanted.
Cheers to the 60th anniversary show next year!

Re: 2021 Abbotsford International Airshow
Actually the snowbirds didn't swap jets. #3 landed, the technicians took a look at the issue, and the same jet went back up.

Re: 2021 Abbotsford International Airshow
True enough. Although I don't trust week-out forecasts in BC.
IN 2019 it was supposed to be gorgeous at the beginning of the week and ended up raining almost whole weekend.

Re: 2021 Abbotsford International Airshow
The Super hornet will now perform in all 4 shows, so that is awesome! The more afterburner demos in that golden light the better! Is there any chance that aircraft will stage out of Abbotsford if the borders open up before the show? It may be too close to the show to change anything, but I'm curiou...

Re: 2021 Abbotsford International Airshow
Lets do this! (Hopefully just once) So glad it's happening. Didn't wanna spill the beans until it was formally announced just in case the BC government changed their minds. I guess the bright side of having the F-22 and Cf-18 not flying in the Saturday matinee show that itll be two twilight shows fr...
