Wow. :shock: :partyman:

I can't wait. Very nice to see the Swordfish on the list. I was hoping that would make it on.

Hi Mike,
The Saturday Photo Tour and Pit are almost sold out. Sunday is about 60% booked at this time.
For anyone wishing to register for either day, act fast!

Cool to see the Canadian Forces flying in a CC-115 Buffalo. Any chance of bringing the C-7 over from the west ramp. (that way the Buffalo and Argosy won't be so lonely.)

ramp rat,

We were thinking about it, it's in somewhat of an air america paint scheme and would look neat, but the owner is not in the area to offten and the plane is really nasty right now. :?

Hi Kevin or Michael,

That's a great line up you've got for the show. Well done. Just wondering if you might try to get the CWH Lysander as well, if it's flying in time? Would certainly fit the British theme.

Cheers,
Matt

Kevin,

the list just keeps getting better and better. I've never seen a "Stringbag" up close before, let alone a flyable one. I'll make extra sure that my digi camera batteries are FULLY charged for this year's event.

Any other thoughts of perhaps another P-47 or two perhaps ?? Sorry if this sounds abit bias on my part, but I am especially fond of the jug having worked on a few flyable ones :D

This really has the making of QUITE the Birtish Themed show !! Is there any chance that the CWH may also bring their Firefly to help round things out with all of the Merlins turning ?? :D

Hi Paul,
We are keeping our options open regarding other aircraft. We hope to have a couple more surprises before we are all done.
Thanks
