Re: NORAD 60th Anniversary Air Show - Colorado Springs

Thanks Jetman121. Bummer that it's not a show. At least i'll see the CF-18 demo down here in New Mexico next month.

NORAD 60th Anniversary Air Show - Colorado Springs

Searching around for info on this air show and can't seem to find anything yet it's on the Snowbirds calendar as well as the Canadian F-18 demo schedule for May 12-13. Is this a public show or am I missing something. Would love to drive up from ABQ. Thanks in advance for anyone in the know...

Re: Nellis AFB Aviation Nation 2017

Great photos everyone. Just a quick review even though it's been almost a month since the show for me. Haven't had a chance to go through pics due to computer issues, but as a first timer I thought the show was pretty damn good. Saturday there was a bit of lag between a few performers and it didn't ...

Re: Nellis AFB Aviation Nation 2017

The Heritage Flight schedule still shows an F-86 on their homepage but it's nowhere to be seen on the Nellis info page. Fingers crossed it shows. I have a feeling from all the flip flopping and changes that are still ongoing with the App that we may be surprised by what actually shows :) ....or does...

Re: Nellis AFB Aviation Nation 2017

I got a response from Nellis in regards to parking at the speedway. According to them, gates for the parking lots will open at 0800. Hope this helps anyone else in the planning stages.

Re: Nellis AFB Aviation Nation 2017

Djack, Thanks for the info. Exactly what I was looking for. Still planning on driving in from Albuquerque and you'll see my bright orange Challenger in the parking lot if I'm there as early as you. I'll probably stay for the Thunderbirds Saturday and bail early Sunday to beat the traffic, depending ...

Re: Nellis AFB Aviation Nation 2017

Hey y'all. Just relocated to Albuquerque, NM and will be driving in for my first Aviation Nation in Nov. Quick question in regards to parking. Approximately what time do the parking lots open at the Speedway? I've seen anywhere from 0730 to 0800 in the past with buses starting around 0845. I'll be s...
