. . . look up in the Air – it’s a biplane, it’s a helicopter, it’s a fighter jet – all at the Olympic Air Show.

This annual Father’s Day weekend aviation gathering will feature 70 years of military aircraft, flying displays, a three hour of low-flying aerobatics show, lots of demonstrations and exhibits, and all sorts of cool stuff to look at it.

A few tips:  Wear comfortable shoes, leave the pets at home, and bring plenty of sunscreen.  A folding chair or blanket will make for more comfortable viewing.  Photography is allowed.

Smoking is not permitted, and no glass allowed on the site.

Location:  Olympic Regional Airport (map it)

Date & Time:  June 14-15th, 2008.  Gates open at 9 am, opening ceremonies are at noon, and the air show at 1 pm.

Admission:  $10, cash only.  Children under 6 are FREE.

Parking:  Get there early for parking.  Fly-ins welcome, park your plane near Gower Flying Service.
