Warbirds and Airshows- Niagara Falls Ontario Airshow 2007

Langley Air Force Base, VA Ft. Campbell, KY Reading, PA Niagara Falls, Ontario Selfridge ANGB, MI Rantoul, IL Lancaster, OH Indianapolis, IN Morris, IL Terre Haute, IN Gathering of Mustangs & Legends Noblesville, IN Greenwood, IN 2007 Niagara Falls, Ontario Airshow Warbirds June 8-10, 2007 Gives a good view of Canadian military aviation history. Great change of pace from the packaged US shows. This is done at the former RCAR field that is now owned by the Russell Group, which is still a grass field. One could be within 25 feet of the Spitfire, Hurricane and ME-109 when they started up, taxied out, and then came back in and shut down. This is small show that is held in a confined area, but it brings a closeness not found in many of the larger shows today. Engine photos are of Hurricane and cockpit photos are Spitfire.
