Any one going to the air show on Aug 27 and 28th?

Looks like this is going to be a 'no gun' event!
Wonder if the bad guys will comply!
I think this is private property!

No weapons and no smoking?... sounds like this is something I'll go ahead and skip.

I think we are bringing a plane up.

Not sure if I will be on the crew or not.

I had to change my post... This is not the airshow at peterson's that sucked horribly last year... This one looks pretty cool.

Please do swing by and say hi. It is always cool to put a face to a name.

Hoser:

We have met before at FRIDPA. Any way, I flew in these as a crew chief back in the days of 'Nam!

I will say hi, indeed!

Nope. Just the guy in back, aka Loadmaster.

I put stuff in the back, throw it out the back and sometimes jump out the back.

I love airshows! I haven't been in a long time, maybe this will be a great excuse to go - so I can see someone throw Hoosier out of the back of his 130 :) (with a parachute of course Hoosier).

Did anyone else buy their tickets online? I haven't received any info about where to pick up tickets at the show or if they are being mailed out. Anyone know?

Sorry you're getting us confused. Hoser is the C-130 loadmaster and all around nice guy with the dancing dinosaur.

Hoosier is armchair jockey and computer programmer with the crazy helmet F-35 avatar guy.

Did you ever find an answer to your question Big Wall? Just curious as I am getting ready to order some tickets today.
Big Wall
08-22-2011, 19:21
Yes, I got my tickets. They sent them by e-mail and went to my spam folder where they got deleted. They resent the tickets when I contacted them. If you don't want the brain pain you can buy tickets at King Soopers.

You guys have fun and enjoy the show. I drew the short straw and wont be there.

Thanks for the update/clarification. I was hoping you didn't have to go pick them up somewhere or at the gate which would defeat the purpose of buying online besides saving a couple of bucks.

Bummer for you Hoser guess you'll have to settle for people posting pictures here afterwards. I haven't been to an air show since I was about ten. Think I'm long overdue.

WooHoo!
I just scored 4 tickets for the show off of Tom Martino's show.
I may end up with a spare or two depending on what the kids plans are.
If so I will advise and hook somebody up that wants to go!
