    The 2012 airshow is this May 5 and 6.

    This is the premier WW2 aircraft air show in the world. If you're going to visit, let me know. We can meet up.

    I've been going to these for quite a few years AND I HAVE NEVER BEEN DISAPOINTED!!!!!

    Please take lots of pictures of WWII-era planes and "report back"
    I will not be able to make it out to Chino , but I would be interested to see what's there.

    The Chino airshow is only about 3000 miles away from me, so I'll not be attending. I agree that you should take lots of pictures and post them here, along with your comments.

    Look through their website and see what you will be missing. The Chino POF is like a "mecca" for warbird enthusiasts around the world.

    Syscom3,
    See you there. Reminder loaded in my phone. First round is on me. I'll PM you my cell# later.
    Guess they re-arrange the Ontario and Corona flight plans a good deal that w.e.

    Here's some you tube links to last years show. I saw the B-25's lumbering around for four passes today. My father flew them out of Mather AFB, Sacramento, CA in 1956.
    View attachment 16430 It was a great show.
