This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

Warbird Retriever show

Tue Jan 17, 2012 12:27 pm

Hello fellow WIXers, I have an idea and I would appreciate some feedback on. I am thinking about a webshow where I visit people in the Warbird community and talk to them about their restorations and aircraft. Warbird Radio is awesome and I enjoy listening. I'm just thinking that a with a webshow we could put a face with the name. Not only would we talk to the community, but also dive into what it takes to research, recover, and restore aircraft. Of course this will take funds to complete and just wanted to put feelers out to see if anyone could be or would be interested helping with this project. Thanks and look forward to the feedback :drink3: :drink3:

There are webshows out there covering lots of different interests, including warbirds, but I haven't seen one quite like your proposal yet. I agree that seeing them in a discussion with the aircraft would be more interesting than just listening. I can think of a dozen I'd like to see right off the top of my head. Twelve weeks - done!
I think focusing on the warbird restorers and their subjects is ideal. Looking at other interesting but unrelated (like classic aircraft) would cover areas already done by others, and is less interesting to me.

As for financing, besides the seed money to start, if you get some decent online traffic you should be able to get advertiser(s) on your broadcast. You need a strong start in your interviews, to say the least...get out you rolodex.
Good luck!

There are many that could be focused on. More than twelve, easily. I have some start up capital but anything extra would help

Thanks to everyone that either viewed, voted, left a response or all three. I think this will be on the back burner for awhile :drink3:
