Default 2005 Air Shows....

does anyone know when the big air shows will be going on in 2005? even some of the smaller ones would be fine - trying to gather events ahead of schedule for next year because maybe we can combine them with NJC opportunities.

let me know!

[off-topic]
Kristie, I was flying color tours this weekend, and a couple came in at the end of the day yesterday, wanting to fly-by their home. They're on Lake Michigan, just south of the Silver Lake dunes. Gorgeous flight, what with the trees turning colors and a perfectly clear blue sky and the lakes and dunes....

Muskegon Air Fair - hot??? 80's (maybe low 90's at worst) and you're calling it hot? Cripes, I was in Phoenix last week and it was still into the 90's, in October! If you can put up with 110 (yeah, yeah, dry heat) there, you'll do fine with 88 and a little humidity. And you know it's usually 10 degrees cooler near the big lake, anyway....

When I get my PPL I will be going to all of those Fly-inns. I wonder when there will be a AOPA convention at BCT.
