Re: MCAS Yuma Airshow 2020

Hi,

Are there any good opportunities to see arrivals or practice on Friday afternoon?
What is the best time to arrive?
How is the lighting ?
I have a 70-300mm zoom and 300mm+1.4TC fixed on FX.

Many thanks for any tips or advice.

Re: Wings Over Whiteman 2020

I was surprised to see this show on the 2020 schedule since they had one in 2019. The next airshow after 2020 will be in 2022, maybe they're planning something special for the USAF 75th anniversary. If that is the case, it's great they scheduled an extra show to adjust the two year cycle instead of ...

Re: Airshow London 2019

I wonder what happened to the "Full announcement coming tomorrow at 12 noon!". How many times have we been told that something really big, spectacular etc will be announced, then very little. Yes, the statics are impressive, flying display not so much. I'll probably take a pass on ASL this...

Re: Canadian International Air Show 2019

Marilyn Bell Park is a good place to see the show for free and does not require a ticket to the CNE. I was told by a couple of people that the Ontario Place grounds were open last year, not sure if a CNE ticket was required for access. You can buy a ticket to the CNE, make your way through the groun...

Re: Airshow London 2018

Hi,

I just printed my photo pit ticket for tomorrow which says "enter off Crumlin Road North". I'm not familiar with the area, any additonal info on parking would be much appreciated. I can find my way from the 401 to Crumlin Road/Crumlin Sideroad no problem.

Thanks.
