    Wings and Wheels

    IU just ran across this and thought it sounded cool.

    The 2013 GREAT NEW ENGLAND WINGS & WHEELS


    The Galaxy Community Council, organizer of the Great New England Air Show, is proud to present the first edition of the Great New England Wings and Wheels, August 24th and 25th, 2013, at the Westover Metropolitan Airport, 255 Padgette Street in Chicopee, MA.
    The two day family-friendly event will feature static vintage and modern aircraft, as well as CARS, CARS, CARS. Music groups, along with food and beverage vendors will keep everyone entertained and nourished. The cost to attend is $10 per person. Children under 12 are free.
    Aviation enthusiasts will see civilian aircraft and War Birds, including a C-47 transport, General Hap Arnold’s B-25 Bomber and other World War II aircraft. It is possible, but not confirmed, that other static aircraft may include a few currently operational military aircraft.
    For automobile enthusiasts, early 1900’s antiques to modern exotics and everything in between will be on display. The cost for vehicle entries is only $20.00 per day and includes your parking spot, admission for driver and rider, and a goodie bag for the first 500 registrants. An early registration discount of $5.00 will be available at our web site.


    There's even a "Have your Mustang photographed with a Mustang" event.

    The bad news -- it's two hours away in Chicopee, Mass. But if enough people are interested, it would probably be a blast.

    I would be interested in this for one of the two days.
    Even though I don't want to do the "car show thing" this year, this one sounds different enough and may be worth the effort.

    Me, too. It's the same weekend as the ECCC show at Alvirne in Hudson, which I hope to finally make it to this year. Somehow I've never made that one even though it's in my town. But that's Sunday, I believe, and doing this on Saturday would be cool!

    If I'm not in a parade that day I'd be up for a cruise down.

    So looking at this, it looks like it's about a 2hr drive. There are a couple of ways to get there. I'm kind of looking at heading down Rt 2 to 202 to 33. I think that it would would a little nicer drive than the Pike.
    I've talked to a couple people and it looks like Saturday would be the day to head down. If we do Rt 2, there is a rest area at Rt3 and 113 in Tyngsboro, or we can do the rest area on 495 (or both if need be).
    It starts at 9am, so plan on leaving around 7am?
    Whose in?
