Looks like the p-47, p-51 and c-123 have been pulled from the show. Ah New England.....

Unfortunately that is confirmed for the C-123 at least.

Not enough sponsorship for supporting the entire show.

Wow, that is really sad. So much for the big 75th anniversary show being anything special

It should still be a very good show none the less and who knows, there is still 1.5months until the show so they could possibly bring one or all of us back if sponsorship picks up.

I shouldn't be mad at the situation because this is basically the only airshow around the area. I always wanted the great New England air show to try to get to the level such as thunder over Michigan etc. but let's face it, it never will. It will still attract 300,00 people simply because a c-5 Galaxy will do in the eyes of people who like aviation. I've been finding that the wix veterans are just skipping this show to save and attend bigger air shows with unique warbirds that will never come this way.
I support it either way but if I wanted to see a p-38 or spitfire etc. fly, I'll always have to go somewhere else

I thought Free and Blue Angels brought everybody out to the Great New England traffic jam....

Phil, your a little past Hartford. You don't know the back ways to Westover?

[krlang]

I guess I have been off the Board for a while, Hi Philo.

Not sure which day we will be going, if not all 3.
We are going to the Flyover in DC the week before.

[phil65]

Hey Ken,

Hopefully I will see you at the show.
We need to go back OSH.....
Driving to DC ?

P.S. I need you to check out a white and red 182 at Beverly, N92207.

Need some help. I will be up in CT for work the weekend of the show. What is the issue with the traffic for the show?
