Is anyone planing on going to the Chino Airshow this year? I ask because I was at wal mart in beumont (ca) today and heard a formation fly overhead,,,,, ( I know the sound) I stuck my head out of the truck and saw a 6 man formation ( diamond with 2 wingmen) fly over, but heading towards Palm Springs.... (fighters) ..

I wish I could find the video, the 2010 opening with 16 P51s flying over at the singing of the national anthem was,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,was a once in a lifetime event,,, I have the video on my old harddrive, but that is not the same as being there...

I'd like to go, but since I can't even make a once a month meeting who knows.

Seems every time I want to go have some fun...some one wants rain on the parade. When is Chino? Before or after March?
Hey Larry.
Mike (Gottlos), already posted a link above. Here is an additional one.

Let me try to get ahold of Cindy and Paul, ( they run the MV part of the museum), to see if they will have space.

Don't sweat it man, We'll make sure Gotlos brings some comfortable walking shoes. I'm glad to see you post, I thought the wheels of the "Ab-----e" landlord had rolled over you for a week.:wink:


Oh...and thanks Jim!

So I just took a look around the Planes of Fame website for airshow information. Apparently there is an application that needs to be filled out and submitted to be allowed to display an MV? At the bottom of the form there is a line that reads,

Display space is VERY limited and all parking is in the field. Vehicle owners/operators will receive confirmations by April 21, 2012, only if there is space available and their vehicle/s meet the requirements.

So we apply, wait, then maybe we can come out and play? I looked around and couldn't find the requirements, but there was an emphasis on vintage. I can't put in a request for time off on the off chance that my 1986 M1009 is "vintage" enough. Might have to pass on this event.
