Apology accepted....................I would never lie about something as important as this. Fishing, hunting, or skirt chasing maybe but never about Breckenridge. Won't be the same without The Ridge though!

Wish I was physically able to attend. I will look forward eagerly to seeing a large thread from Breckenridge.

Sounds like the show is really coming together. Word on the street er... runway is 80 Warbirds confirmed to attend. Excitement is building!

Wouldn't you know....I live in the area for almost a decade and no shows. I leave and they might return...figures.

Truth is though, I had more fun meeting the Ezells and going through their hangars (and Mr. Pardue's) than I would at any airshow.

The airshow is THIS weekend! My camera gear is packed and I get to share the Warbird experience with my Dad and my son. Hope the weather holds out for a great event. Friday arrivals, Saturday practice airshow, Sunday will be the BIG show day. I'll be on site with a limited number of my books for sale that features photos from past shows. Let me know if I need to hold one.

I'll be there Sunday. WX is "iffy" with a chance of rain, but I'm goin' anyway!

I believe we will have the Harvard IV will be there (pale gray and orange with New Zealand markings).

Oddly enough, this will be the first time that you and I have been to Breckenridge when we actually knew each other! Rather than standing side by side or across from each other, taking pictures that ended up in a book!

Right! Twenty years and I remember the excitement on the ramp of the show like it was yesterday. We will have to take some new pics of each other in the background! Don't forget to bring your autograph pen as we are now celebrity authors.

I was really looking forward to going to this one with my son. Alas, we cannot. Maybe next year.

Please make sure to post a lot of pics!
