Looks like we’re getting the USAF F-35 Demo in 2023! Looking forward to finally seeing a full F-35 flight display in Abbotsford.

Re: 2022 Girls Can Fly Too Event
Well there’s always two sides to every story. Looks like this event could have gone on but organizers choose to take a different route. Seems kind of ridiculous. “Liu said the Girls Fly Too event could still have taken place without the SFOC; only the flights would not be permitted.” https://www.abb...

Re: 2022 Girls Can Fly Too Event
Absolute bull crap. Can’t imagine how much planning and resources have gone into shaping an event of this nature. I hope the troubles this will cause all the people involved doesn’t stop them from continuing to host future events. I’m sure this is going to be a huge inconvenience to many and we can ...

Re: 2022 Girls Can Fly Too Event
First of all, thank you for sharing the details about participation this year. I am out of the loop when it comes to attendance for this event so it's great to see someone provide inside info.

Re: Abbotsford International Airshow 2022
Since 1971 the Snowbirds have been in attendance every year in Abbotsford. The Snowbirds are the highlight of the show and are the finale that everyone looks forward to on Saturday and Sunday and the opening act for the Friday night show. The unfortunate incident that occurred means that this is the...

Re: Abbotsford International Airshow 2022
Second: a question to riff raff (or any others in the know): according to the schedule of arrivals posted, does that mean most of the statics aren't arriving until Friday - thinking of the FAF Phenix, the A-10s, F-15s, all of the F-35s and presumably a CF-18 or two for static/NORAD performance (and...
