"CAF Retro Show" featuring the Ladies of Liberty and the U.S. Army Band will perform immediately following Saturday's AIRSHO. Also, Saturday's NIGHTSHO begins at 7:45 pm. The NIGHTSHO will feature Matt Younkin's Twin Beech 18 After Dark, and Bob Carlton's Super Salto Jet Sailplane.
This year's main attraction, the long awaited return to the skies of the CAF's B-29 "FIFI"! The B-29's flight will include the famous simulated atomic bomb run, which will cause your bones to shake. Speaking of "Shivering your timbers" you will want to stay put to watch the Franklin's Flying Circus in Pirated Skies. A heart thumping wing-walking act set to the tale of a pirates mission to take over the skies.

The science night about oil looks way cool. We just had a science night at my daughter's elementary school earlier this week, and it was lots of fun- it was all about space and the solar systems, planets, etc. Complete with a "hover craft" ride attraction. Do you have someone going to the oil night to report back how it was?
ReplyDeleteHey RJ! Yeah! I can definitely check that out tonight! Are you in Midland?
