The Great State of Maine Air Show 1997
Chino was there and filed this report. The Great State of Maine Air Show 1997 was held on July 19th and 20th at Brunswick Naval Air Station, Brunswick, Maine, USA. It was a great day for an air show, with blue skies and plenty of warm sunshine. Through a "friend of a friend" connection with someone in the Blue Angels organization, I was lucky enough to get VIP tickets for this air show. This meant I could sit in a shaded area close to the flight line and rub elbows with some of the performers (they had refreshments for the performers set up in the same area). The only one I actually met was Patty Wagstaff, the great aerobatics flyer. I felt bad asking her for an autograph while she was trying to eat after her performance -- but I did it anyway! Shame on you! MiGMan Sorry, Patty! She flew an impressive routine in the Extra 300S, including a high speed inverted pass just a few feet above the runway. |
