Abbotsford Internation Airshow

My roommate and I made the short trip across the boarder yesterday to see the Abbotsford Airshow. At one time the Abbotsford show was second only in size to the Paris Airshow. It was an interesting mix of Canadian citizens and U.S Military personnel. A Lengthier article is to follow at a later date.

This video is a little hard to see, but the guy on the PA can be heard clearly and he gives a pretty good description of what's happening.

EDIT: Ok so maybe he's not so easy to understand. The pilot brings the plane in over the crowd at his minimum airspeed, then points the nose straight up and lights the afterburner. The fighter goes from 500 feet to 15,000 in a matter of seconds. It literally disappears. Pretty freakin' cool!

Lockheed F-117A Nighthawk, that's an armed gaurd in fatigues under the nose in the background. There are two more guys with fully loaded CAR-15s standing to the left out of frame. It may be early 70's stealth technology, but it's stealth all the same.
