CHESTERFIELD COUNTY, VA OCTOBER 20-21, 0900-1700

The Chesterfield County Airshow is next weekend. This is usually a pretty good show, with lots of vintage and WWII era hardware. Some modern A/C as well. Many good acts perform, this year to include the Golden Knights Parachute Team.

For more info, feel free to PM me.

BTW.......Whoever came up with the idea for this sticky, excellent idea.

I was searching for information on warbirds and came across this site. It is the information page for Mid-Atlantic Air Museum's World War II Weekend. They are planning flights, static displays, re-enactments, guest speakers, and even a hanger party. It's not that far for me to travel, so I will most likely go. Just wanted to get the word out - it looks like a good event to attend.
