This is really shaping up to be a great lineup, lots of color on the ramp this year, hopefully the 144th brings the Griffin.

Departure day - Monday - is promising to be its own little airshow also!

Thanks.
Would there be an easy transit option to get there on the Thursday for arrivals ?

Rick

Check out:

eBus (runs from Pacific Central Station in Vancouver with a stop in Guildford and YXX)

or Reliable Bus (runs from Scott Road Skytrain station to YXX)

Another RCAF aircraft has been announced. CC-130J Super Hercules confirmed for static. Also my apologies for missing the CH-400 Skyrocket “Miss Veedol” announcement as well but the main post has been updated to include it as well.

Thank you, thats a great help and both Mount Lehman Rd & Huntingdon Rd look within walking distance of the drop off. Which is best for photography ?

Rick

Huntington's the best for photography. The sun is at your back for most of the day. You probably will get kicked out when the Thunderbirds fly, but can get back in when they are done. It isn't far to to walk from the terminal, probably 15 minutes.

VFA-122 has been doing a dual Super Hornet Legacy program at all their shows thus far.


Hopefully this holds true for Abbotsford.

VFA-122 have also not been using their jets so far this season. They used Stinger jets at Gig Harbor so here's hoping those come to abby.

Thanks for catching the CC-150 announcement for me theairshowdude.

Just a couple more weeks until showtime and the static lineup is the best in years!

Hopefully the Polaris is the retro scheme.
