2018 Mid Atlantic WWII Weekend

Here was part of their Facebook post. I was a pass on this show as I am also going to Dayton at the end of the month. BUT, now with both Fifi AND Doc being there, I am planning to attend this year. I think I may reserve a room for Saturday with the plan of attending on Saturday. Sunday would be a back up plan if the weather on Saturday is no bueno. Anyone else interesting in going?

Two B-29’s, two B-17’s, four B-25’s, a C45, a C46, three C47’s, a C54, a C97, a P63, P-51 and P40. Also an F4U, SBD-5, SB2C-5, FM-2 and TBM-3; numerous T-6/SNJ’s, Buker Jungmeister, Jap Kate and Val replicas plus many L-Birds, and PT’s and a partridge in a pear tree!

Acrobatics demonstrations include the P-51, P-40, F4U, Greg Shelton and his incredible FM-2 Wildcat, Kevin Russo and his SNJ and Jerry Wells in the Jungmeister.

The WWII Airborne Demonstration Team is also back by popular demand.

Airplane rides will be available in no less than 10 WWII bombers, transports, fighters and trainers.

i do not know at this time, but i might possibly bet able to go, depends in if one or both of my assistant chiefs are around to cover, or if i can get one of the company captains to be duty officer for a couple days, what time does saturate rday usually start, as i would need to drive to the reading area friday night after work and would be hoteling late that night??

 

Doors open at 8:30 usually. I have gotten there as early as 7:00 am to get in line so I can set up right on the fence.

fence is good???

 

Yes, it’s about 3 feet high, orange temporary fencing. You can actually shoot from a chair for some of the passes the planes make.

sitting on my fat a**, shooting from a chair, cooler??, now that's what i'm talking about
never mind the cooler, just did a little reconnaisance in force and i see the rules

what do tickets cost??

 

They have been $25 at the door, but there are ways to purchase early to save a few dollars.

 

Hmmm. Tough call. Would definitely be a cheaper weekend! Feel free to do whatever you like. We still have options for canceling/modifying our WDW plans.

 

If it was me, I'd go to WDW @ddindy and @ExploringWDW ! But since I don't have the time to take off from school, this weekend thing works for me!

 

That’s exactly what we decided to do @jbwolffiv!
