Heart of Texas Airshow in Waco
 

So is Waco in South or North Texas? :D

Anyone else going to this tomorrow? Not sure if the weather is going to cooperate.

Sorry, no. Going to try to make Under the Wire, just northeast of Port A in Louise! Stop by.

Falcon flight is there and performing in the Waco airshow today.

I'm hesitant to fly to an "airshow" when there are no fly in directions for pilots. Paying admission at the "gate" when you fly in seems wrong (not sure how this one is but I have encounted this).

Sadly, one of my key people called in sick today, so I'm not going anywhere.

Someone post a PIREP, please? I was really looking forward to seeing Falcon Flight perform.

Me, too! Doesn't that just gripe your cookies?

We used to fly into the Janesville, WI airshow, and they would always park us three miles away AND charge us admission. lol

But that's still better than the upcoming Houston airshow, which has banned fly-in attendees! I sent the organizers an email, and they claim the ban is due to on-field construction. Seems pretty far-fetched, given the tiny footprint of a GA airplane.

To me, that's like having a car show, and banning automobiles.

And you should see how Wings over Houston treats the on-field tenants air show week... cha ching!

Why -- what do they do?

The air show org has persuaded the city of Houston airport ops to close the city hangar access taxiway for four days during the air show week.

Gee, I'm sure they refund you four days of hangar rent...right? :rolleyes:
