Re: Abbotsford International Airshow 2022

The performers page is actively being updated but just not linked yet on the airshows home page. I reckon that'll be changed once they get a few Insider Announcements out.

Re: Abbotsford International Airshow 2022

Thunderbirds will only be performing on Saturday and Sunday. Also, something new this year will be the North Star Drone show which will be featured on Friday night.

Re: Abbotsford International Airshow 2022

My understanding for the change of date was so airshow could accommodate the Thunderbirds but I could be wrong. It’s really interesting to see Seafair and Abbotsford on the same weekend but I’m hoping that’s positive rather than a negative!

Re: 2021 Abbotsford International Airshow

Another minor comment: I wish that H2A2 had modified the script for the Super Hornet demo and replaced "our/your" with "America's". I wasn't offended or anything, it's just the context made no sense with the show being in Canada. Small thing, but I'm a detail person. As an Ameri...

Re: 2021 Abbotsford International Airshow

It's been a bittersweet weekend with the weather not cooperating at times and the sad news of the passing of former Abbotsford Airshow president Ron Price, who was near and dear to the hearts of many people close to the show. The Friday show was a blast and I actually enjoyed the temporary change to...

Re: 2021 Abbotsford International Airshow

I'm only going to be able to catch the Sunday show, what's everyone else doing? I typically book all three days depending on work but this year is very different with the restricted format and pricing. I am booked for Friday but will be watching the two Saturday shows with family at a friends farm ...

Re: 2021 Abbotsford International Airshow

The Snowbirds are expected to depart Moose Jaw at 10 AM and the flight will be trackable through Flight Tracking apps. Keeping weather and other factors in mind, both the CF-18 demo team and Snowbirds should be arriving between 11am - 1pm.

Re: 2021 Abbotsford International Airshow

Thanks AirshowHawk. Does anyone have any more information on practice flights (and estimated times?) by any of the performers on Thursday? I know it won't be the usual arrival day, given no statics and the unique situation of all U.S. aircraft staging from nearby airfields. But do you think the U.S...

Re: 2021 Abbotsford International Airshow

Looks like the only thing that can really put a damper on the show is the weather. With the rain forecasted for the weekend I don’t think my plan of bringing a blanket will be viable. Chairs it is!
