Dates have been released for the open house as 12/13th April 2014.
I'm tempted as I'll be in the states at the time anyway and can combine it with a trip to the boneyards...anyone else considering it as I'm unsure of going alone

As airshow venues go it looks awful, shooting into the sun all day.
Do you want the Aladeen news or the Aladeen news?

A very good chance that I'll be flying down from Vancouver for this show. As Tony says... Not the best for photography. But it is free, it is a Airshow and in the same city as the Boneyard. A plus is maybe some spotting at Tucson International for some out of country F-16s if they are still around.

You have got the museum at Pima just outside the boneyard as well. A couple of years ago I had a days release from a family holiday and spent the day at Pima and the boneyard fantastic. However there is also a lot to do around Tuscon - the film studios where many westerns have been filmed, the desert zoo and the biosphere. There are also lots of budget hotels.

The Pima museum use to operate a bus trip down celebrity row and some of the main alleys.
Not too good for photography as you are shooting through tinted windows , but if you are a number cruncher , a real good oppurtunity for loads of numbers.

It still was in the summer of 2012 - great opportunity. I posted some pictures from Pima and D-M - end of August/beginning of September 12.
