this is the first year in 28 years that I am sitting out, and it is an
abnormality, Gary was the 18th death in 44 years. there has not been a
death in 4 or 5 years.

it seems this is just a bad year for air shows in general.

lets just hope that it is the last for a very long time......

my condolences to the friends and families of those that we have lost.

Man, we wanted to attend this year, but things at the ol' hotel just
haven't cooperated. Between remodeling, personnel, and football
season, we just can't get away right now.

Anyone going? Anyone there? PIREPs, please?
