I just got back form attending the kick-off breakfast and All I can say it was the best $50 I ever spent. The fed you and you can stay all day to watch the demo practice and watch all the static arrivals.

Ed Hammill was first followed by the super hornet then the Tbirds. The Tbirds did about a hours worth of practice. The kept doing the same maneuvers over and over until they got is perfect. Them a few arrivals. A C-130J, B-17, C-54. Then the golden nights but a a full show just for us. Very cool. The landed about 20 feet from us. Then the super hornet went up again......he stayed up there and joined up with a F4U and practiced there legacy flight. After that the Harrier went up and did a short demo with awesome hover. The iron eagles did a show.

Aircraft were still inbound when we left.

Very cool

I googled directions and they gave me exit 5, turn left toward montgomery st and turn right onto montgomery st, then a right onto granby rd.

would just taking memorial drive then turning left onto granby be easier??

Why don't you drag your butt down to Westover for the Airshow/GTG on Sunday? We let Marines on the base....someone has to pick up the trash.
