The show is interesting but with the increasing heat of recent years
it can be physically exhausting. There are only a handful of
overloaded portable toilets, and virtually nothing to drink to
rehydrate, and the airfield of course is just an open area in the
blazing sun that can surpass 100 degrees F during the day.

If you can brave all that, plus the extreme security paranoia of the
organizers and the considerable difficulty in even reaching the show,
the planes are pretty interesting.



Yeah, you're a real aviator, you are.
