Any thoughts on the possibility of catching arrivals at Trenton on Friday? Is it still possible to spot from Whites Rd?

As far as I heard Whites road was going to be blocked off, but that might be for the show only.. worth a shot, definitely a good place to catch arrivals.

Awesome show today. It's nice to see the CF kit get its chance to shine. Polaris refueling demo with 2 hornets, Hercs dropping pers, cds and sartechs and of course the CC-177 demo! Did anybody make it out? Back at it tomorrow..

It was an awesome display of military Canadiana :) The Polaris refuelling demo was great! Never seen a Globemaster climbout like that of today - it looked more like a fighter with what appeared to be about a 60 degree nose up. Century Hornet is beautiful (first time seeing it in person) and the demos flew nice and tight to the crowdline :) :)
I'll be back out tomorrow with what looks like much better lighting conditions.

Here's a couple from yesterday, man was i annoyed with that damn fence, and some of the rudest people yet i've met in my years of going to these shows. All in all, a good open house, the air refueling demo was a highlight for me, the last one i saw was with the old 707's at the CIAS years ago.
