Event: Burnet Air Show
Date: 12-Apr-03
Location: Burnet, Texas
Description:

The Burnet Air Show was once again well attended and extremely well organized. 

Positive aspects of the event included the variety of planes, the proximity of the vehicle displays to the crowd and flight line, and the overall ease and convenience of participation.  Like last year, the aviators from the CAF turned out in force to fill the sky with aircraft of all kinds from jets like a MIG to a wide range of prop planes including a B-17, a Corsair, and countless others.  

The Lone Star MVPA had several jeeps set up in an impressive static display.  The members in attendance with vehicles also had the rare privilege of carrying some rather famous passengers during opening ceremonies.  VIP passengers included Jim Lovell of Apollo 13, Frank Borman of Apollo 8, and Lefty Gardner.  Club members attended in period correct uniforms along with a number of jeeps.  Members in attendance were Dan K., Lewis S., John K., Herb T., Glen V., Ray P., Tim W., and Martin G.   

This show was an excellent event with great access for the crowd and an outstanding vantage point for members in attendance.
