Dayton Air Show 2008 - Day One

Kaden and I headed to the air show this morning and arrived a little bit after 11am. We took drinks, snacks and the wagon with a canopy over it. Very nice. Right after getting there, I noticed a C-130 sitting on the south side of the ramp and noticed the tail flash - Youngstown! SWEET!! We walked over there and went through it and sat in the cockpit. Kaden said, "Whoa! This has lots of buttons!" and "Whoa! This has lots of windows!"

I can't wait...





After that, we walked by the Springfield Vipers looking for Dan S, but he wasn't around until Sunday. Kaden played on the inflatable stuff for awhile and then we staked out a spot in the grass to watch some of the show. After the Viper demo, we hit the toilets and then grabbed some Nathan's Hot Dogs and reclaimed our spot for some F-104's, Sean Tucker and the F/A-18 demo.





We headed out and did some swimming in Vandalia before heading home and Kaden was beat...


Until tomorrow with press passes... prepare for photo overload.
