The Caribou did not fly at it's "Last public appearance". There was also a massive lack of warbirds with not even a Dak taking to the skies. Aerobatics were very ordinary and as explained there are no Roulette's. One PC9 flying loops for ten minutes is not exciting. No P3 Orion or BAe Hawk and one F-111 for about 5 minutes.

On the upside the Southern Knights are decent value and the F-16, FA-18, 757 and Super Hornet put on pretty good displays. Why can't our boys put on a C17 display either?

Maybe it wasn't that bad and the weather has just made me grumpy.

Oh yes and we all found out once again that the F16 has more power than the whole starting grid of the indy 500.
