Re: Nellis AFB Aviation Nation 2017

Similar to some others that have posted here, I am making my first ever trip to Nellis for the show. As a photographer, I am curious as to how strict security is with bag size based on the criteria listed on the website so I am seeking out input from those of you who have attended before. I have a ...

Re: Vlado Lenoch Killed in Airplane Crash After Amelia Earhart Festival - Atchison, Kansas - 7/16/17

So shocked to hear this news! Didn't know him personally like you did Ryan, but I have been reflecting on the times I was fortunate enough to see Vlado fly. I think the last time was at the Cleveland Air Show last year. Was looking forward to many, many more shows with him and "Baby Duck"....

Re: Doolittle Raid 75th Anniversary at NMUSAF - Including B-1 Flyover

The B-25s are gathering in Ohio again for another Doolittle Raid commemoration, this one on the 75th anniversary of the mission. This year, two B-1 Lancers will perform a flyover of the memorial service at the National Museum of the US Air Force. Is anyone going to see any of the preparations or ce...

Re: EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2017 - Oshkosh, WI

Sounds promising that Doc will be at AirVenture based on this article. Just preliminary right now, but AirVenture was specifically mentioned. It will be interesting to see where else Doc makes an appearance this year.

Re: Planes of Fame Airshow 2017

I noticed that the CF-18 demo team is no longer listed on the Planes of Fame Airshow website. Previously, I had wondered if the CF-18 had two demo teams much like the USN F/A-18 demo teams (East and West Coast) as the CF-18 schedule showed that they were going to be at McEntire JNGB. Appears as tho...
