Speaking of Bill Greenwood. I talked to him this summer and asked about a ride. He asked how much I weighed. When I told him 250#, his reply can be summed up as..."No chance, Sundance." :cry:

Has their ever been a gathering of Spitfires this big in North America?

Sounds like a must see for Spitfire fans

Will need to get a few Spifire Veterans their for this, still quite a few in Ontario

Keep up the good work Mike. Your efforts are greatly appreciated. I also like the British theme that you are going with. That is quite different, for North America at least.

As of now we have put things on hold for a few weeks to see if our dates will change.

From talking to Bill Greenwood, He said osh had five spits and one hurri in I think 1995? also I think he said the same number in NV one year for a gathering, They would be the largest in North America.

I have noticed that a couple of other shows are kind of doing the same thing, but with smaller numbers (Lancaster, 1-3 Spits, 1-2 Hurries)? I did not exspect this to be a popullar theme with other show organizers.

Please don't have it the first weekend in June (Reading PA)or the weekend after July 4th " the Holiday Weekend" (Geneseo NY). Both seem to be big WW2 Style airshow dates on the greater east coast.

I only say that because last June there were 3 major events on the same weekend, Very tough to decide which direction to go (first).
