I attended on Saturday and was very impressed with the turn out this year! Over 20,000 people attended on Sat alone. The A-10 with the pyro was a special treat as well as the YAM's B-25 and B-17 "Bomb" runs! Aerostars was pretty amazing with their new aerobatic aircraft!

Next year is the 10th anniversary of the show and they hinted at "something big"! Anyone else attend?

Cheers!

My son and I took a chance on the weather Saturday and made the trip north to Gaylord.

This was our first time to this show and we were impressed with how it all came together....great show for such a small airport!

Still have more pics to work on, but here are a few for starters.......

Looks like a good show. I've had this one on my radar for a while, but the date constantly falling on Father's Day weekend has kept me from being able to make it.

We braved the heat and went on Sunday our 2nd year attending. Over all a good show the pyro was a nice addition. The flashfire truck had mechanical problems with a reported flame out so his race was scrubbed. The A-10 demo team also had to return to the ramp after taxing out to switch to the back up plane due to a mechanical problem.
