Hey, you beat me to the forum before I did. Thanks for setting up the 2018 edition. It will definitely be a good one with the Blues back in town after a 15 year absence.

I'm new here and didn't see a Abbotsford International Airshow thread so I thought I'd start one. Thank you for that. I will add that to the list. I believe I saw that as well just forgot.

The DP A-10's will be back next year. It will be the last year of their 3 year commitment.
