Thai
Sky Festival 2011
posted 15 December 2010
Dear
Thai Sky Festival Family and Friends,
We
are so very sad to tell you, we learned today that an official
order has been signed by the Royal Thai Air Force Commander
in Chief to 'postpone' aircraft support for this event.
We do not know exactly what that might mean for the future
of Thai Sky Festival, but it does mean that there will be
no event in 2011. Our best understanding is that flight
time for the Hercules C-130 and BT-67 aircraft and pilots
has been reduced for 2011. This is something no one knew
would happen in November, when RTAF support was all but
certain.
Our
greatest regret is, of course, not returning to Thailand
with you this coming March. We are sorry to have raised
your hopes (our were up there with yours), and to now let
you down. We still have hopes of seeing you again in the
Land of Smiles, and we have not given up on Thai Sky Festival.
Thank you for your continued enthusiasm and support.
Wishing
you holidays full of love and joy.
BJ,
Larry, and Bobbie
