WOW! THANK YOU ✈️

We are so incredibly humbled and appreciative of the support we have received over this past weekend, as we celebrated hosting our third annual drive-in event, SkyDrive, and our 7th Annual Airshow London show!

We would like to thank our partners, sponsors and volunteers for the endless support and dedication to get this show off the ground each and every year.

We would also like to thank all our pilots and crews that took part in the air display and ground display for coming to Airshow London and creating once in a lifetime experiences for all our guests.

Thank you to the London International Airport for allowing us to take over operations and help promote a love for aviation for generations to come.

And THANK YOU TO OUR FANS for the ongoing support and energy brought each year as we try to bring the best in aviation entertainment to London, Ontario.

As a non-profit organization, we thank you for supporting our mission as we aim to give back to the local children's hospital, veteran support programs, and aviation schools.

That's a wrap on another great year!

See you next year! Save the date - September 8-10, 2023. Tickets go on sale in December.

Hotel tentatively booked on the strength of this year's show and format... Shall we now start debating suitable watering holes?

Tickets on sale now. Looks like they added a tier this year.

"Gold Front Row", which takes away one of the Red Zone rows.

An extra $100 to get front row. I still feel Red Zone is fine, the only sucky part is take-off amd landing shots get obstructed (which happened last year because I wasn't first row Reds, but it turned out ok ;))

At least it's one full show and not a morning show/afternoon show.

Man!

What a surprise about that Gold zone!

I've been lucky enough to get first row in every year of the new airshow, including all Skydrives, simply by making sure I was there early enough. I was shocked to find my $200 wouldn't even guarantee me a shot at a first row...

On one hand, just having a Gold front row seemed like a cash grab. On the other, I do like the idea of not having to worry about if I'll get front row or not.

So, I decided to put my money where my mouth was and get a good ticket. Got it Saturday at 10am.

It'll be interesting to see how the sales of these tickets go. I don't mind a front row premium, but I think they could have made it a bit less "premium"; they're still going to make a bit more money, but it wouldn't have been quite as gouging-looking.

Still, I'm looking forward to what they give us this year. At $300 for a ticket, I hope they have a lot in store!
