I wanted to go but ... I just got a CFII job offer at El Monte. They want me there on the week end. For now I still live in Fotana and I drive the 2h every morning for my 8 o'clock flite :cool:
Friday I've no idea what is going on, I'll check.

At worst, I'll hang out with Funked/Animal Friday night in Chino.

You know guys, if you want to hook up during the week, I can make you enter for free in the airport and we can see all the museum planes for free because they are parked on the ramp. We can also go check the hangers of others companies, the ones who paint/repair the B25s, ponies, F7F...

Fontana - Original Home of the Hells Angels
Former Steel Town - (Kaiser Steel & Bethlehem too I think, gone now)
Bedroom Suburb today. Has changed drastically since I played hoops against the Fontana Steelers. Used to take your life in your hands going to an away game there, and that was in the 1970's! Not too bad a place today.

Fontana....

I went to School over the hill at UCR, and had friends in Fontana. One thing I remember... Tricked out Horses. Guys just hanging out in their yards/streets with ornately decorated horses, with boom-boxes lashed to them, playing Mexican music. Interesting combination to say the least.

Icemaw and MidnightTarget - I got an email that I think was from one of you guys but I'm not sure which.  We don't really have a meeting place chosen.  I'm just telling guys to call me on my cell when they show up and we will find each other.  Email me funkedup@raf303.org if you want my cell number.  

We will be there around 10 am on Saturday.  We are going to be there Fri and Sat nights too.  I'm thinking steaks, vodka, beer, etc.  If you have trouble finding me I'm kind of hard to miss.  6'4", 275 lb, white guy with a buzz cut and a beard and glasses.  I'll probably have my AH hat with my handle on the back.  :)

Frenchy and Animal, email me again pls.

Polish evening at the show.

As funked said, the 1st Polish Air Force Wing "Northolt" is inviting you for an enchanting evening of Polish vodka, Polish beer, Polish kabanosy and a lot of pilot talk.

Alot would have to have changed for it to be not too bad a place.

I went to Junior High School there however long ago :)

and the place was absolutely a filthy dustbowl peopled by criminals and streets lined with dead stray animals..trash blowing around, pinned to the chainlink fences.....and a summer that would bake you alive.

but hey maybe they watered since then and planted some nice shade trees :D

============================

I was born in Fontana but smart enough to get out at the age of two and never go back (though I did attend Cal Poly Pomona in the late-80's which smells close enough.)  

I'm in San Diego and will try to make the airshow on Saturday.  Since I'm an official Aces High dweeb and I never get out in the sun anymore, I'll be wearing a straw gardener's-type hat to help keep me from burning.
