Duluth Air show

The air show went off this past weekend. It was the first one that I have ever missed. My dad and I are normally two of the thousands of people that show up at this great event. My dad did however get a chance to go this Saturday.

Once again the protesters were there. What are they protesting? They believe that this and any air show represents support for war. Well most if not all air shows have war planes from both the past and present, it is not any air shows host to promote war. All most anyone will tell you that war is hell but it needs to be done some time and thank god we have the plans that can get the job done.

I guess each day there was about 15 protesters that feeled the need to get in many of the peoples faces that were attending the show.

This years high light was the Thunderbirds. Also on hand was a mig, the Duluth air base F-16's, there was also an f-15 that flew with many other, plans on the ground. There were a few other so called"war" plans that flew.

The Duluth air show also had many plans that had nothing to do with the military. There were like three stunt shows and the Red Barron Pizza squardern that does a great show.

These protesters take a great event and try to drake it down every year. Yet it is very hightly attained every year. These protesters first are way off base that this or any air show is a promotion for the military. An air show is to an event to see great acts that include military shows. If some one sees these shows and wants to join then good for them but it is not the point of any air show.
