B-17 Gathering (maybe)
TBM Gathering
Great Lakes Intl Airshow
Dayton
Battle Creek
Goshen
Livingston County
Oshkosh (and hopefully some pre-Oshkosh warbird stuff too)
Terre Haute
TOM
Cleveland

Hopefully:
MCAS Miramar

Doubtful:
Brantford
London

For those keeping track at home, there are seven consecutive weekends of events in there - and two non-airshow events immediately preceding that for nine weekends in a row. Two weeks off, then three more consecutive shows. I'm tired already!
Which BC show? I'll be attending the warbird show.

I'm definitely planning on the warbird show, we'll see about the flippy show though. I will probably need the free time at that point to catch up on other stuff.

Here is my current schedule for 2018. Unlike most here, my shows are usually lighter on the numbers side lol

Thunder of Niagara

Great Lakes International Airshow (Maybe - depending on strength of line up)

Canadian International Airshow (site survey for the Thunderbirds on Thursday and Practice day Friday, maybe spotting at CYYZ at some points during the weekend)

Airshow London

Unfortunately no Oshkosh for me this year, despite all of my friends going lol. It gets expensive to fly and stay for a week, year after year. I also might save money to maybe do a week of spotting for Red Flag sometime in 2019.

- Dayton
- National Cherry festival
- Battle Creek (Warbirds)

Abbotsford this weekend,
Radom in 2 weeks,
Portland in another month and half

This year will be surely a banner year for my airshow trips. Nothing will top this for a long while... :)

Not a big number in this year. Only 4-5 Airshows which held in my hometown. Glad to be a part there. :)
