Airshow in Lethbridge July 23, 2011
« on: July 10, 2011, 07:48:58 AM »
Hey everyone,

Although "Jeeping'' is my latest hobby I have been a recreational pilot since I was 16. So, I am heading to the airshow in Lethbridge Saturday, July 23, 2011 (Sunday as an alternate if weather is not good on Saturday).

So, I wanted to see if any fellow Jeep enthusiasts share my love of aviation. If so, we could convoy down there.

Let me know.

Advance tickets are $15 with free parking.

Thanks,

Jeff

What, no aviation freaks outh there?  :'(

Have you ever seen the Snowbirds? An F-18? A-10 Warthog demonstrating how they chew up tanks? Walked through a C-17 Globalstar (great big jet cargo plane)? If not, its worth seeing...

Might make the trek down.... haven't decided if I want to turn it into a weekend of camping yet.

Got to sit in a warthog a few years ago at a very similar show! Id love to be there but unfortunately work is interfering with this one :(
I did a Google search for "hot trannies" but nothing came up about oil coolers  :o

Worrying too much about mpg with a Jeep is similar to worrying about your sister's virginity. An ok thing to be concerned about but...
