| Wife and I went ....two years ago, caught the very last show on a Sunday afternoon. It was the Thunderbirds....good show, but seen em before. There was a P-47 flying formation with an F-15 when we were pulling up, but they landed before I could park and get my camera out. This year, I plan on seen it ALL. *g* Note....its hot, dry, and crowded. Bring sunscreen. And water (this being an airshow, they charge an arm/leg/firstborn for a bottle of anything).

Stay hydrated at these shows. I have seen more people collapse at airshows from dehydration than I care to remember.

| I don't know Freebird. I've been out at our ranch all weekend so I didn't even look. Seriously, one of these times you go through Dallas or Ft Worth, let me and RabidAlien know. We could meet up for a glass of iced tea, coffee, or a cool adult beverage.

|  I had a cat in front of my screen while reading that, blocking out the last "beverage". My mind filled in the blank, as "cool adult video".

 | That sounds great, I'd love to go to an airshow with people who actually want to be there. Also, just about ruined a keyboard. Too funny.
