Thunder in the Valley 2007

Well, there are no major airshows the weekend after the one coming (23rd-24th) so maybe thats a start? After that we start to see several major events each weekend through July so it'll be no earlier than August...

Yep, that sounds good. Ill get some solid info up soon and try to recruit some more pilots.  8-)

Depending on the date, I can bring an F-16 demo and maybe even set up an F-16/P-51 USAF Heritage flight with a buddy.  Both were well recieved at the Hawkflyers virtual airshow on Friday.

Hey this sounds interesting, especially as I am a major advocate of RAF/RN aircraft. Maybe, just maybe, I could bring one of my Sea Harrier FRS.1s along, and do a VTOL performance? And if anyone wishes to bring A Vickers VC-10, we could perform a simulated mid-air refuel? And after that, I could possibly do a C-17 performance, showcasing the STOL capabilities - and if anyone else wants to fly the C-17, we could do a formation together!  :D  :)

[mrjake2002]

Sounds good!  8-)

OK, I got my C-17 ready. However, it won't be an RAF one, so, instead I will use an RAAF livery.

I also have the Sea Harrier FRS.1 ready, so could you please tell me where this will be held so I can practice? Thanks!  :D

LOL thats ok then Heathaze, they can ROFL at me "falling out of the sky".  :D

I will be bringing a VC10 and would be glad to provide fuel aswell as a few flyby's  ;)

[an-225]

Sounds great Vulcan1. Be warned though - whenever I fly formation, I tend to...uh...well put it this way - I come in echelon right for refuel. I refuel. Then, instead of passing off echelon left, I uh...make a pass over the tail, and...fly in front of the plane...inverted...don't say I didn't warn you!  :D

Anyone mind giving me the location so I can practice there?
