CAF Airsho 5 days away!
Ya'll livin in Texas got the wonderful annual Confederate Air Force (I still can't call them "commemorative") Airsho 2007 comin up this weekend! I make the annual long drive (5 hours) from Waco every year. Used to fly there but can't justify several hundred in rental fees whilst most of my $ is going to A&P school and debt freedom. Flight through central & west TX. isn't so pretty anyway. I guess FIFI (B-29) will be out of commission for eng. overhaul (?) but this year marks the return of the completely restored Diamond Lil (B-24). Of course, the Mustang(s) are what I anticipate the most along with the "Tora Tora Tora" demo. I've been doing this airsho almost every year since the late 70s when it was in Harlingen. It's just about the same every year but it never gets old. This is when the CAF really goes all out with as many planes as they can get in the air so if you've been to an airshow where there's a WWII demo with the bombs (dynamite) & explosions & such, there is a whole lot more in Midland every Fall! Anyone hankering for something to do this coming weekend should consider what has always been one of my favorite airshows. This is truly warbird nirvana in Midland, Texas. See ya there? Ricky |
