HELP! Airshow vacation ideas

[Njaco]

So, come 1 Jan., I get 5 weeks vacation but I have to have the days I'm taking by February submitted. I'm trying to find the dates for several airshows along the East Coast and having a hard time. Anybody know the dates for these or have some suggestions?



1. WWII Weekend: Reading, PA
2. Geneso Airshow: Geneso, NY

Hi Njaco,

this is what I´ve found
2009 airshow dates, 2009 airshow Schedule, 2009 airshow calendar
Airshow Schedule Arranged by Date: AirShow.com

Thanks Roman. Those are for 2009 but a few links brought me to the dates I wanted. Great!

Chris when is World War II weekend? I may be able to go if I ask my dad in advance... thanks!

[Njaco]

According to the website, June 4, 5, and 6, 2010. I'm gonna ask TO if he is going. I think I'm gonna get a room at the Days Inn nearby (walking distance from the field) and make it a real weekend.

Maybe Charles can come up and maybe Aaron Brooks as he is in VA also. Who knows!!

How come you wont take some time off for Chino 2010 in May? Its a weekend, so you wont use up too much vacation time.

[Njaco]

No but airfare is way too much for me to expend. I still pay childsupport, doesn't leave much left.

I'll go see whats on the calendar ... ? Hmmm

EDIT: Chris I just asked. He said sure, he just needs to see his schedule.

I believe Genny is on the 9-11 of July they are debating the theme at this point , they are working on their A20 Havoc and B23 but they won't be anywhere ready

Thanks Neil. I haven't decided which one yet but finances may dictate only one extravagant show this year. I threw the "Can I go to California in May?" act at my pre-wife and she gave me a look only Bigfoot could love. And I work weekends so I have to put the days in ahead of time.

Russell Group Airshow in Niagara Falls (not the east coast but a day's drive) has some nice rare war birds. Usually in early June.

Chris, I will certainly be there on Saturday June 5th, God and weather permitting.

Depending on circumstances, an over-nighter is not out of the question. But I guess there is time enough to decide on that.
