Waterloo Air Show

6th Annual Waterloo Air Show welcomes new acts and returning favourites:

Jet School Bus, Snowbirds, CF-18 fighter jet and a rare chance to fly in a WWII B-17 bomber

 

Ken-Lin-air-showEvent Dates: June 28 & 29, 2014

Kick-start your summer by experiencing amazing aerial displays at the 2014 Waterloo Air Show. Aviation is showcased both in the air and on the ground. Returning favourites will include spectacular displays by the Canadian Forces Snowbirds, Canada’s CF-18 fighter jet demonstration, daring aerobatics, warbirds and more.

Four new acts will be in Waterloo this year:

Jet School Bus: a 367 mph school bus may be impractical for getting the kids to school but they’re going to love the roar and flames as the Indy Boys take to the runway
B-17 bombers:  not one, but two historical WWII bombers will be in Waterloo this year: one flying and one on display. And incredibly, both B-17 Yankee Lady & B-17 Sentimental Journey will be offering rides for $450 U.S. With 12,000 B-17s built, they became one of the most important aircraft of WWII.
Lucas Oil Skydivers: Look way up and marvel at these 3 talented skydivers as they ride the winds using their highly maneuverable parachutes.
MiG-15: Waterloo Air Show’s very own Co-Producer Richard Cooper will fly his MiG-15 Korean-era jet in the show.

Acts rounding out the 2014 Waterloo Air Show line-up include:

Canadian Forces Snowbirds  – with their awe-inspiring 9-plane aerobatic formations
Canadian Forces CF-18 demonstration jet – Canada’s fighter jet
Kent Pietsch & his yellow Jelly Belly plane  – veteran U.S. aerobatic performer with 3 separate acts
Mike Wiskus, aerobatics – a former U.S. aerobatic champ, Mike’s performance is incredible!
Gord Price – a 71-year-old aerobatic pilot from Thornbury flying a YAK 50, Serial #1
T-33 Silver Star  – the ‘Mako Shark’ from the Jet Aircraft Museum in London
Harvard Formation Team – 4 planes from the Canadian Harvard Aircraft Assoc. in Tillsonburg
Wayne Hadath – a Kitchener resident who races his home-built F1-Rocket
Pyro – lots of smoke and flame — kaboom!

(all acts are subject to change due to operational duties and mechanical difficulties)

SBsmokeA Static Display (aircraft parked on the tarmac all weekend) will offer this year’s guests additional opportunities to see aircraft up close, take photos and speak to the pilots. Most significantly are a number of WWII and post-WWII aircraft including a B-17 (offering rides), TBM Avenger, AC-47 Spooky, C-46 Commando, C-123 Provider and a B-25.

This two-day family event will also offer additional entertainment and activities including an Autograph Tent, displays, vendors, a kids amusement area, Food Truck Alley and licensed areas.
