My son is stationed there at Shaw. I Plan to visit him around the time of the Airshow.

Do you know if the air show is the same both days? Troop 140 is coming down Saturday but we cannot make it that day with them. We'd like to come Sunday if we'll see the Thunderbirds, F-16's etc. EDITORS' REPLY: You will need to contact the base directly, or check its Web site.

Hello I"m a big fan of Shaw AFB Expo. I would like to know if the YF 22 Raptor is scheduled to do a demo or a flyby during the show. Thanks. EDITORS' REPLY: We suggest you check the website of the show's organizers.

There are no tickets. Everything's is free except the food, and it's very hot, but if you bring a chair, water, and ice, you'll be very fine.

No charge to get in. No charge for parking. Food and drink concessions available. Bring sun block! The show is the same each day. Buck, I understand the Raptor is static display only, no demo flight. More information at

www.shawairexpo.com

and on Facebook.
