It too was an all-day affair and there was no way I could have been on-call and been able to go to the thing.<br /><br />I got a little impatient sitting in traffic but I just kept repeating to myself "must get a t-shirt for Bobbi" ;)Montiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17926708261895308192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-25808756522700290032010-06-08T07:39:00.455-04:002010-06-08T07:39:00.455-04:00I'm not sure I'll be able to go -- the siz...I'm not sure I'll be able to go -- the size of the crowd is simply amazing; it works perfectly fine if you're there to spend the day (or half-day) but isn't hugely compatible with carrying a pager.<br /><br /> No rocket racers this year. I'm told the timing didn't work out. Eventually, though...!<br /><br /> I love the older planes; looked up one year at the Indy Hamfest to see a B-17 passing by, superkewl!Roberta Xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09956807794520627885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-54058931257801436112010-06-08T06:59:08.990-04:002010-06-08T06:59:08.990-04:00I love old airplanes.

Looked up, and there was a B-29 and a B-24 headed for the airport. I did go to the airshow, actually got to talk to the pilot of the B-29, a by-gosh honest CBI theater vet that had flown the things in combat.Josephnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-78289043290990834752010-06-08T03:03:07.889-04:002010-06-08T03:03:07.889-04:00BTW, the B-2 flyby is super cool.

At a distance it looks like some kind of "bat-a-rang" batman might fling (but packing MUCH more punch!).<br /><br />I hope they will do a warbird group flight like they did here, a dozen Merlins and big inch radials all fired up at once is breathtaking.Montiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17926708261895308192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-37533637272624725952010-06-08T02:58:06.525-04:002010-06-08T02:58:06.525-04:00Ah, but do they have Rocket Racers?Ah, but do they have Rocket Racers?Montiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17926708261895308192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-76091073679633778892010-06-07T23:31:02.697-04:002010-06-07T23:31:02.697-04:00I do hope you'll take a camera along.
