as to being on a federal military base firearms are not allowed period. the parking area is off base but I would not even bring your firearm with you leave it at home.

If that parking area is off-base, then why should I leave it at home? I can lock it up in my truck easily enough.

Although, it doesn't look like we're coming anyways, but I just wondered why you'd advise me to leave it home if it's going to be staying off-base anyways?

All airshows are great to see old and new warbirds, if you will. Do miss Areo though. I think the one and only time the SR 71 was here at Aero, pretty neat. I went out to Will Rogers Monday around noon after the air show to watch it take off. They sat at end of runway what seemed like for ever warming up. Finally they did, took a long loop to the west and back north (had old at that time Nikon FG and 210 MM lens and was pretty close) but it was so loud and so forth did not get a really good pic and I was shaking from the noise alone, but they made a really nice slow run over the entire runway before heading back west. Did get some get pics of the T Birds and Blue Angels back in the day though. Blue Angels would stage over the area of our plant on SW 29 west of Rockwell, so I went there and they would fly so low and close I could get four cockpits in one frame.

The parking areas are on base property.

If you go tomorrow, be prepared for long lines with little shade...they were running as many buses as they could but it was still a long hot bake in the sun.

Really wanted to go, but there's too much in yard and house work to do on the w/e. I enjoy the oldies more than any.
