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

Trenton is a great place for watching arrivals. |

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. Vijay
