Media in attendance was the Courier-Journal, WHAS 11 TV and WHAS AM 840 radio. The mention of us in all three was actually pretty good. I'll try to figure out how to post the C-J's article but in the meantime you can read an excellent write-up (WITH GREAT PICS!) HERE on the "It's All Downhill From Here" Blog.

Thanks for posting this. It was very enjoyable to read. I gotta say that I just love air shows! It gives me goosebumps when those jets roar overhead and the announcer yells, "That's the sound of Freedom!"........gee, goosebumpse just thinking about it. :)

I have to admit, the vet that backed his motorcycle up to the peaceniks and gave them a half an hour of loud exhaust, is priceless! ROTFLMAO!!

Way to go gang.

Priceless:


Harold Trainer, a peace activist, tried to convince motorcyclist Tom Amshoff of Jeffersontown to stop revving his engine yesterday in Memorial Park during a protest of military involvement in Thunder Over Louisville.

Tom Amshoff of Jeffersontown is now one of my heroes! hehehe He was the picture of stoicism sitting there revving his engine and ignoring the scene behind him. He made my day!!

They claim the aircraft used today are 'weapons of mass destruction.' However, the truth is they are implements of liberation and defenders of freedom.

Excellent point. I maintain that the liberal peaceniks who criticize the military would scream to high heaven for protection the second they realized their very own personal safety and security was threatened.

It actually was a pretty good write-up on us.

I'm very surprised and interested the see, how low-key/restrained the media coverage was...glad it (somewhat) warmer. :^)

Good for you! I was at Thunder last year and will never forget sitting on the bridge over the Ohio on the way to the Indiana side as a C-130 did a low fly-over! What a feeling - coming STRAIGHT AT US!!

You all done good! Kudos!!
