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 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.

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