Welcome to Windsor! ;-)

Does anyone happen to know what their practice schedule will be like while in Windsor? I can't cross the border but would love to see a practice!

edit: and yes, I have been lurking unregistered for a long time on here and finally registered so I can post and ask this question!

Welcome! I don't believe they will by flying any practices on that side of the border. The most you can hope for is probably takeoffs and a flyby before landing I'd guess. The Canadians have the second half of the 5-7pm show window, so take off might be around 5:30 maybe?

I hope you get to see them!

TFR runs from 6-7pm. No warbirds expected to practice.

Ecorse will be closed between Beck and Denton due to the aerobatic box.

I am thinking I will try watch from just west of Denton and see how that goes. Maybe I'll see some of you there!

Yep. Hopefully the cops closing the road won't be too overzealous

CF-18 team just arrived at Windsor.....F-18 and a Herc. Was watching on the flight radar and almost caught them coming through our area, but they were just a bit too far out. Can't wait to see the show on Sunday!
