The schedule posted on their Instagram page has Abbotsford listed (Facebook as well). Suspect it was just a typo.

Re: The Sky's No Limit; Girls Fly Too 2021

Kind of strange that the P-8 and KC-46 both make their debut at Abbotsford....and it's not at the Abbotsford Airshow! Throw in a few fighter/trainer types and it is a better static than the AIAS has had in years.

Re: Pacific Airshow 2021

They were all together, along with the Red Arrows, in 2008 for Quebec City's 400th Anniversary. https://www.bigreddogatl.com/Air-Shows-2008/Quebec-Air-Show-June-13-15/ Is this the first air show in history to fly the Snowbirds, Thunderbirds, AND Blue Angels??? They flew together over Lake Eerie a fe...

Re: Help required Husband 40th birthday surprise

With 2022 being the USAF 75th Anniversary, I would expect big things from the Nellis show in November.

And you have the bonus of having Las Vegas ...

Re: Wings Over Houston Airshow 2021

Booked my hotel for the show. Given that one of my other trips fell through I'm thinking I may stay a couple extra days and see the area also!

Re: Cleveland National Air Show 2021

I just picked up the Thunderbirds refueling with a KC-10 over Colorado en route to Cleveland on Flightradar24. Didn't know you could track the Thunderbirds.
