Anybody else planning on attending?
EDIT: Sadly not gonna make it this year... I'll leave this comment here though.
I will be there Friday on the airport and plan to be south of the field (in the box - on Kimball Ave), near the extended centerline of runway 21 on Saturday. Sunday is an unknown - we'll see how Friday and Saturday go.
These 2014 (F-22 and B-17) shots were made on Kimball Ave - it's a great place to shoot, but bring earplugs... Not for the "sound of freedom", but to block out the dozen+ very loud and terrible sounding auto subwoofers all blasting different Hip Hop "tunes." Quite irritating - could not even hear my scanner two feet away.
I will edit and replace these placeholder photos with fresh F-16 images after the show.

Ross and I will be attending all three days, hope to see some friendly faces out there!
Think I might be doing an out-and-back on Friday for the evening show.
I'll be out there Friday as well.
When is it?
I don't see it on the calendar.

Next Weekend, it's on the calendar (now).
I will be there all 3 days.
I went last year for all 3 days. My best day by far was Friday and I encourage anyone who can only go one day to select Friday. Hope to see several of you there.

Great capture Ned, I really like the mostly head on and slight right banking angle, makes for a very nice photograph.
Thanks Harvey. I consider the annual Planes of Fame airshow to be the best warbird show in the country and try to go every year. I've never been disappointed there.
