They are and have been for some time. No doubt there will be last minute cancelations - we booked a year in advance!

I'll be at the Comfort Inn also. I booked several months ago I figured it would fill up fast, as I saw a bunch of WIX members taying there.

Just keep checking. You may not get something too close, but there are still plenty of rooms within driving distance. My wife changed ours from Red Roof to Motel 6 last week with no problem. Doesn't matter to me....either place is free for us :wink:

At home...I live on the north side o' town. At the rate things are going, though, it'll cost me moreot drive there than it'll cost you to sleep there.

Unfortunately as might be expected, there have been deletions from the lineup also. I am sorry to see that one of my favorite Mustangs, the brightly marked F-51D "Val Halla" is no longer on the list.

I don't think I will be making it to Columbus in September, but the massive number of Mustangs in one spot will be very impressive I am sure.

Someone has to stay behind on the West Coast and do the Heritage Flight slot at Salinas that weekend I suppose.

Mike - if that's the case....I sure wouldn't want a show to miss having an exciting TWO-SHIP Mustang/Thunderbolt II Heritage Fight....
