California Capital Airshow 2012
Is anyone from VAF attending the California Capitol Airshow in Sacramento, next weekend? Looks like the Westcoastravens are performing there.

I have the opportunity to make a stop-over on my business trip in Sacramento on Saturday, Sept 8th.

We (the West Coast Ravens) will be there performing on Sat and Sun. Most of us are arriving tomorrow. Come by and introduce yourself.

Thanks, I try to do so. Do you know if the public has access to the planes? Or where can I locate you?

Our planes will be in show-center and next to the Thunderbirds. There will be a tent for autographs. Some of us will be there. I imagine some of us will be by our planes at one point or another. The ?public? won?t have access to the planes but if you find us (and we have time), we may be able to show you our planes. We will be wearing white polos with the West Coast Raven logo. Looks like this
There will also be aircraft on display. Dayton?s RV-4 will be there.

Thought you may like to see this.
Taken with an iPhone. There were a lot of dSLRs taking photos so in a few days there may be more better quality photos.

What do RVs and the Thunderbirds have in common?
For the answer, look below:
These pictures were taken with my phone after our performance (West Coast Ravens) on Saturday at the Capital Airshow in Sacramento, CA. You should see some nice high res pics soon. Once we get links up, I will post them here.
16 RVs taxi from show center to say hello to the thunderbirds.
Following "Lead"
