Two Jet Teams Booked For Culpeper Virginia Airfest

Show Offers Free Admission October 8 At Culpeper Airport

Michael Dale, director of The Culpeper Virginia Airfest, says organizers have locked down two headline acts for their October 8 Air Show - Nalls Aviation’s Sea Harrier and Red Star and the Dragon.

From the official show website, "Retired Marine Colonel Art Nalls will be bringing back the awesome Harrier and over 30 WWII-era military aircraft will evoke memories of a past time in America's valiant history. A new feature will be a massed gathering of formations of these aircraft providing a wonderful spectacle of sight and sound not seen in Virginia for many years."

Red Star and the Dragon features an L-29, a subsonic, Cold-War-era fighter supplied to the Soviet and Czech air forces, and a BAC 167 Strikemaster jet trainer, in choreographed dogfight routines.
 
Entrance is free and the gates open at 0900 Saturday October 8. Culpeper Airport is located at 12517 Beverly Ford Road in Brandy Station, Virginia.
