I attended all of the "warbirds" shows at Madera. I live only 3 miles from the airport, so I will be there every day. I've been waiting for the warbirds to return here. JOE LAKATOS

Dear Kent and Dawn, The website looks great and it promises to be nothing short of spectacular. Don't know if you heard but the airshow in Denver has been cancelled so hopefully you'll pickup some extra fans from here. Let us know if there is anything we can do to help things along.

What a great show! It had been close to 20 years since my last Madera Airshow, so I had no idea what to expect- other than your website's description. I was pleasantly surprised to see all the warbirds on the ramp and plenty of vendors. The volunteers were great and security well assigned. Great job!!!!!

Are you going completely away from the propeller driven aircraft? There is nothing as good as the sound of a skyraider or a F4-U corair or a Hawker Sea Fury What about B-25s or B-17s or A-26s or T-6s or SNJs P-38s or P-40s Not all Warbirds are jet powered.Every year you would hear the planes fly over or see them! That was what brought the people to Madera's Gathering of warbirds that was the best advertistment you could possibly have.Chandler or Fresno airports could not compete with the Madera Warbirds.I just happened to be walking by the bulletin board at work when I caught the word Warbirds out of the corner of my eye on a poster.This is a perfect weekend for the show. It used to be in August. I went every year. I did'nt even know about 2009 show! Put some fly-over advertising up! A couple of Merlin or Pratt-Whitney power plants would do the trick!! What about us older people? Not everyone is young or hung-up on jet power.There was a time when aviation was not jet powered.

I enjoyed the air show this year. Where are this year's photos on the website or when will some be posted? I read in the Fresno Bee that there were 13,000 people? I was there on Saturday and the crowd was light...was Sunday really crowded? I was very disappointed that I could not bring in food for my kids. I don't like them eating all that junk food!

We attended the air show on Sunday & had a nice time. Thank you. I urge you to rethink your food & drink policy or your security, though. Not sure which. Info. on the website to the contrary, we were told at the entrance by a very stern guard that only 1 bottle was allowed for a baby. Our baby is 10 wks. old. Small babies eat frequently & 1 bottle is not enough for many hours at an event. Also we had a 2 yr. old toddler who had snacks & milk. The guard wanted to make no accommodation for him at all. He doesn't eat corn dogs, & we do not want him drinking soda or eating cinnamon rolls & kettle corn. We had Cheerios in a baggie, a cheese stick, & milk for him. As we turned to get a refund, a supervisor intervened & we were allowed to enter, but it was unpleasant & if the supervisor hadn't been there, we would've had to leave. We understand prohibiting adult food & drink, but families with babies & toddlers should not be subject to the 3rd degree & told 1 bottle of liquid only. Particularly wh! en the website contains no such information. We did have a good time, but I wanted to mention this, as the policy at the gate was not mentioned on the website & it is unreasonable as applied to babies & toddlers. At least as conveyed by the guard, who said 1 bottle for a baby & that's it.

It was nice to be able to watch the airshow from my house! All the comforts of home and being able to see the airshow! We had friends from Fresno come up and had a BBQ. The noise did get a little annoying the second day though.
