Topic: LA County Airshow @ Fox Field: 19-20 March--Blue Angels Feature Performer

I'm not posting this as an organized event, but just throwing this out there because I'm sure a few people  would be interested in attending.  I'll most likely be attending on Saturday.  I love this kind of stuff (I'm an airplane nerd, of sorts) and I know there are few people on here that probably do too.  If people decide to come, then we could meet up there and possibly grad dinner or something afterwards.

I'm definitely interested. I'm in if I'm not out of town for work.

Looks like we'll be going on Saturday.  It's supposed to be in the mid 60's with intermittent clouds, so it'll be a nice day to sit on the ramp and drool over airplanes.  Gates open at 0900 and we'll probably be there right at that time, performances start around 1200.  We'll be setting up about 200 yards off show center, to avoid the huge crowds in the middle and we should be there early enough to set up a nice camp.

Rick,

Thank you for passing this information along. It is my mother-in-law's 90 birthday celebration so I will not be able to make it. I too am an airplane enthusiast.

Family definitely takes precedence.

I mixed up the weekends. I thought it was tomorrow and was very excited. I went to by my tickets an realized I was wrong. I'm going to try to make next weekend work.

It happens, ha-ha. I'm not sure how many people you have going, but that 4 pack seems like a pretty good deal, $60.  I bought that and one additional ticket and saved about $20.

Sorry for the threadjack, but don't forget about the Thunder Over the Empire show, also known as March Airfest at March ARB. It's the weekend before the Mojave Road trip (April 16 and 17). They have an amazing lineup this year including the Thunderbirds, and it's completely free of charge! One of the coolest free airshows in the entire country. http://marchfieldairfest.marchfss.com/

Actually, thanks for this.  I knew this airshow was out there, but I forgot about it.

Yeah, thanks Joe. And thanks for the tip on the 4 pack Rick. My little girl is 5 so she is still free. I'll just be paying for my wife and I.

I'm all of five miles away from March ARB, so pending work I'll be there!
