Grass Valley Airshow 2009 from Mach14 by Kdog
This was the first year I went to this airshow and I wasn't dissapointed. There were planes flying all day. The airshow included The Patriots 2-ship flight demo, a pass by a Beale Afb T-38, the CDF Firefighters aerial demonstration, a four ship Diamond Star demonstration, and some passes by a turbine Legend.
