Fallon Air Show 2009

[Midnight Mover]

Do you guys drive up for that show ? ......now thats a drive.

I was there last month and a CAG was training....pretty awsome . I got to go to the boming range and thought that was pretty cool.

I was there for the helos but , for a jet head its heaven.

Myself, I'll be driving up 395 and then dropping off my trailer somewhere and then heading over to Fallon.

I plan to drive. Am going up the day beforehand. It's definitely not my favorite drive in the world - for some reason it seems to go on forever, lol. BUT there are always stops along the way - Owens River, Alabama Hills, various lakes near Mammoth & above, etc etc........and I found several awesome camping spots up near Reno, too.

Yeah, it's definitely a Long Drive.  From Torrance, it takes me about 9 hours to get to Carson City.

To the guys that are going, have fun and be safe.


I'd go if I wasn't broke.

I managed to get on the media list, but I later found out there are going to be bleachers, which might work out better than a small media pit.......
