Not you, but I am!

The Andrews Joint Base Airshow at KADW is coming up May 10-12 (https://legendsinflight.org). As usual, it has plenty of aircraft to gawk at, various government agency booths and demonstrations, and even some GA booths. Plus, this year, the Blue Angels and Thunderbirds are both putting on shows.

Anyhow, I get the privilege to fly the local flight school's Cessna 172 into Andrews on Thursday with my buddy who owns the plane. As you might imagine, there was a lot of paperwork, but not too bad. We're flying out Sunday or Monday.

I might be at the school's booth (http://chesapeakesportpilot.com/) Sunday, telling people about how much fun GA is. Hopefully, I'll get to meet some great POA People.

Only hints I have are to wear comfortable shoes and plenty of sunscreen (white concrete reflects up and burns you in places you don't want to be burned!).

Hope you can make it. It's a great show and honors the people and aircraft that serve our country!
 
Have a good time. I've been to the show a few times (as a regular visitor). I used to be based at VKX. It's easy to find ADW at least (I used to state ADW as my destination when coming from a distance because nobody knew where VKX was. When I got in close, they'd just ask "Potomac or Hyde."
 
Thank you. It should be great fun.

We fly into Hyde occasionally when we use the shop there. Stan Fetter (airport manager) also helps in the local area helping people get their FRZ pin.
