Just wondering if anyone is at the ceremony. Would love to see the replicas do the fly past. I am very impressed with the effort they have gone to in order to make this happen.
We are a very fortunate generation to have this to look back on rather than being the generation who faced this event.

I believe Bob Wade is piloting one of those planes. For those of you who are too young to remember, he was the first NATO pilot to fly a Mig 29 back at the Abbotsford Airshow in 1986 I believe.
