I'm probably going to attend. I hope the weather holds out and stays semi-decent.

From what I understand it's Historically the biggest 2 day even in Alaska...I am not looking forward to the amount of traffic on base, but at least I'm not working the gate on this one.

When you see the Thunderbirds do their thing you will realize that our Airmen are the best in the world...also the F-22 is a crazy aircraft. You are going to be thrilled that it's on our side when you can see what it can do in the hands of our pilots.

If you aren't satisfied with the show, I'll ensure that you get your money back.
