Hey All: I'm sorry, again it's taken entirely too long for me to check back with this topic. There is indeed an MVPA function in Aberdeen in May. It is the longest continuosly running event in the country (30th year). A google search of "MVPA Aberdeen" yielded some results: May 08 - May 10, 2003 30th Annual East Coast Military Vehicle Rally The annual East Coast Military Vehicle Rally, Show, Swap Meet and Flea Market (formerly known as the Aberdeen Rally)features a large militaria flea and swap market. 200+ vendors occupying 500+ spaces, growing each year. Drivers of military vehicles entered for display or judging receive free entry. Military vehicle displays. Reenactors, living history groups and MVPA chapters wishing to have military or historical displays are welcome and will receive complimentary spaces. Free camping. Contact: Tom Buonaugurio (443) 243-1000, [email]aberdeenrally@aol.com[/email]. For detail information visit our website at [url]www.wacbgmvt.org/ecr/[/url] . http://www.g503.com/events/ http://hometown.aol.com/aberdeenrally/mainpage.html Oh well, maybe next year.... However, I'll pass this along early. The Dayton Airshow in Dayton Ohio. July 17, 18, 19 & 20, 2003 Thursday through Sunday at Dayton, OH International Airport. I believe this is the 2cd largest show in the country... Oshkosh being first. This is a special year for this event because it is the 100th Anniversary of powered flight. It is also the 50th anniversary of the military flight demo teams.... Blue Angels, Thunderbirds, etc. I saw something on TV that there are 3 groups building replicas of the original Wright Bros flyer.... 2 stock, one modified to be more flight worthy. They are slated to fly there, if finished. In addition to the airshow, Dayton is home to Wright Patterson AFB, and the USAF museum. Also the Wright Brothers Musuem. I didn't get to the Wright Bros. musuem, but I spent two days at the USAF museum. It took 12 hrs of driving from Princeton NJ, and there are campsites in the area. Hopefully this is early enough notice for people to plan. http://www.usats.org/ http://www.usats.org/2003.htm try a google search on "Dayton Airshow" Again sorry about the delay -Dogfish I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.
