2016 Chino/"Planes of Fame" Airshow

[Mike Margolis]

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.

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.
