Thanks for website Mike, I plan on doing both days..somehow I will see an airshow with lot's of sunshine this summer!! no more rain..chats begin already

I was a Carp airport last Saturday and it was interesting
to see one of Frist Air's B727 parked on site. C-GFRB built in 1967..looks like she has already been de-regn..numbers are gone already. Not a big fan of modern airliners but I do like First Air's fleet of vintage stuff..only a handful of 727's in their current fleet now!
