Apparently, the organisation took lesson from last year’s disappointing show, and managed to persuade many warbirds and classics to come to the historic airfield. The event was blessed with great weather allowing excellent photographic opportunities. Although a little overpriced at $20, this seems to be the usual fee for North American shows nowadays. Some finetuning took place with Vintage Wings of Canada from Gatineau (Que.), right across the river, as the latter decreased its number of free open houses this year, which will surely have benefitted attendee numbers of the Air Rally.
