Hey folks,
A few events happening this weekend, August 19-21, 2011.
Waterloo Air Show at the Waterloo International Airport; and
Southern Ontario Model Airshow is being held at the Stoney Creek air field.
Summer’s not over yet, there’s still time to get your aviation fix.
I am also co-hosting a new, aviation and space related podcast with a focus on Canadian aviation news and events. Check it out at Cleared En Route!
Here are some pictures I took at the 2011 Hamilton Air Show. Feel free to contact me if you’d like a copy of the full size image or to see some of the other photos I took. You can see the full set on Flickr here.
If you’re still undecided about going to the Hamilton Air Show tomorrow, Sunday, June 19th, here’s a look at just SOME of the aircraft you’ll see flying (click to enlarge).
This is the ramp in front of the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum. These aircraft all flew in the air show and there are many more to see on static display as well.
I will be tweeting and posting pictures live from the airshow using the hashtag #YHM11. Follow me on Twitter, @FlyingDan, or follow the hashtag by going to this page.
Clear skies and lots of sun! According to The Weather Network forecast for Hamilton for this weekend we will be in for a hot and sticky Saturday and a cooler Sunday.
Bring lots of sunscreen and make sure you use it. Stay hydrated and cover your head! For more tips on enjoying your day at the air show see my previous post.
If you can’t make it to the airshow and would like to follow on Twitter I will be tweeting using the hashtag #YHM11. You can go to this page here and keep track of my tweets related tot he airshow. Follow me, @FlyingDan to see all my tweets during the day. I encourage you to use the same hashtag so we can keep all posts in the same place.
Further, I believe the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum will be tweeting from their @CWHM Twitter account so make sure you follow them as well.
It’s going to be a great weekend for aviation in Hamilton! Get your cameras ready and if you need any tips for the airshow make sure you check out my post here.
