Based on the article and

the money distribution shown, Is there general

mismanagement down there?

The other thing that was

misstated in the article was the fact that the Snowbirds

are booked years in advance. The applications for the

Snowbirds first must arrive at 17 Wing Winnipeg no later

than Oct. 1 of the previous year. After many, many

reviews at their home base of CFB Moose Jaw,

Saskatchewan, the show dates for the year are announced

in early December.

Any show with a runway of

4,000 feet of longer can house the Snowbirds.

I recommend you look at the

following web sites in order to get information about

what the CAF and the airport will have to do in order to

conduct a safe air show per the Snowbirds standards.

There are also several FAA restrictions as well.

I hope that they have a

very successful event and that the Snowbirds will make

this a common occurrence every few years to make it that

far south. I wish all of the air show committee the best

of luck as this will not be a small undertaking -

air shows never are.

It is truly rare that they

travel this far south and Peachtree City and the whole

Atlanta area should be happy to see them for this two-day

event. They are some of the best in the business.
