Default Boshears is cancelled

Team Aerodynamics and all the other performers can't get their necessary waivers since the Gummint is shut down....so it's cancelled

The Boshears Skyfest will be on next year, sometime in April.

Best,

That is a BUMMER! Is the entire thing canceled or just the airshow?

That is a great show and my son enjoyed all the carnival "stuff" for him to do.

Bill, Dean Wingard called me this afternoon since my Air Tractor was going to be there and he just said, "The whole thing's off."

Best,

Yeah a bad thing for sure. We lived it here with the Blue Angels cancelling early this year.
Has to be something we can do about all of this - junk

There should be a law that states "when the Government office is closed no permits required". Be it a flight permit, fishing permit, anything.
