Barossa Airshow - 19th April 2009

Postby DanW on Sat Apr 04, 2009 2:29 pm

For those near Adelaide...

The Barossa Airshow is on Sunday 19th of April. Tickets are only $15, day starts at 10am and flying displays from 11. The airfield is about 60km from the CBD. I think it'll be a good chance to practice shooting prop-driven planes (something I really need to work on).

Details at http://www.barossaairshow.com.au/index.html

Anyone interested in coming along?

Yeah I would be keen - if my license let me out of the training area :( Seriously though, if I can con a work mate into going I might be able to get down there :lol:

Looks pretty interesting, anyone been before?

Just a reminder post for those thinking of coming along.

Weather for Sunday looks pretty much perfect - 23 degrees and mostly sunny.

The program starts at 11am although I'm aiming to be there a bit before 10 to capture some of the arrivals.
