I would love to, but that's Indy weekend. Airshows are as fun as watching car races to me. | ||

They were at Alliance last year too... great show! Don't forget to watch the jet-engined Kenworth truck too, it's amazing. | ||

Anybody interested? 15th Annual International Airshow featuring the legendary U.S. Navy Blue Angels, Sept. 27 - 28 at Alliance Airport in Fort Worth. Sponsored by the Fort Worth Aviation Heritage Assocation, the airshow is one of the nation's premiere flying shows offering several specialty acts for your entertainment.
