Bay City Flight Fest from Pilots of America Message Board by Snaggletooth
Today me and my Dad headed down to a flight fest at one of my local Airports. It started off real slow with nothing going on at all. so we toured a C-47 and walked around looking at a few planes that were there. Once the C-47, T-6, and PT-19 took off and did a few Fly by's then the real show kicked off. 3 Aerobatic exhibitions. It was so much fun! Afterwards I got to talk to the Pilots and they were so excited when I told them that I was taking Flight Lessons. Anyway here are the pics I took. I'll have a video up one day. It's not very good as the sun was in a bad place but I got it anyway.

AIRVENTURE 2009 'WARBIRDS IN REVIEW'
LEGENDARY PILOTS, AIRCRAFT AND THEIR STORIES AT EAA AIRVENTURE 2009 'WARBIRDS IN REVIEW'
EAA AVIATION CENTER, OSHKOSH, Wis. - (May 20, 2009) - The legendary pilots and aircraft of the past 75 years will take center stage once again during EAA AirVenture Oshkosh on July 27-August 2 at Wittman Regional Airport, as the EAA Warbirds of America host their popular "Warbirds in Review" program.
These daily informal sessions in the Warbirds area have proven extremely popular with AirVenture attendees, as it is a rare chance to see such aviation legends as Bud Anderson, Paul Poberezny, Gunther Rall and Bob Hoover up close with aircraft types that they flew in combat, testing or training. Little-known stories and questions-and-answer time with these personalities are among the highlights available at Oshkosh that are nearly impossible to witness anywhere else.
Warbirds in Review sessions take place at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. on July 27-August 1, and at 10 a.m. on Sunday, August 2. Admission to these programs are included with all AirVenture admissions and are part of one of the world's greatest annual gatherings of former military aircraft in one place.
"The Warbirds in Review programs alone are worth the price of AirVenture admission," said Bill Fischer, Warbirds of America executive director. "Combine that with all the warbird aircraft, flying activities and everything else at Oshkosh, there is no place in the world that compares for the true aviation enthusiast."
EAA AIRVENTURE OSHKOSH is The World's Greatest Aviation Celebration and EAA's yearly membership convention. Additional EAA AirVenture information, including advance ticket purchase, is available online at www.airventure.org. EAA members receive lowest prices on admission rates. For more information on EAA and its programs, call 1-800-JOIN-EAA (1-800-564-6322) or visit www.eaa.org. For instant news updates, go to http://twitter.com/EAAupdate.
