I hear you, ramp access was a big plus I guess. Glad you enjoyed the Symposium!
: I will restate my impressions so I don't sound like I am b
: eing critical... The variety of Warbirds was very good
: , certainly equal with the best shows I have been to, if n
: ot the best. Todd did an excellant job as an announcer.
: The Symposium was, well, "excellant" doesn't do it justice
: . I like what the Symposium does, as it gives a personal
: touch history, a face and voice, to the warbirds we view a
: t the show during the day.

: gh not bad, was also not the best I have seen. I suspect
: that the available ramp space was too limitted for the air
: craft they planned to have in attendance. The taxy way do
: wn the middle of the display area did provide for some goo
: d photo ops, but aircraft like the the Texans were difficu
: lt to view due to their positioning. Perhaps it would be
: possible to use some of the grass off the end of the ramp,
: beside the outside display of museum aircraft as more par
: king space. In my opinion the access to warbirds at the G
: eneseo air show is as good as it gets, and because of this
: , the photo ops abound. I also recognize that the Air Dis
: play organizers must have a difficult time with not knowin
