8mm of two airshows held in 1967 and 1968 at the Erie International Airport (Erie, PA). Included are clips of the 1967 Blue Angels (F11 Tiger), 1968 Thunderbirds (F100 Super Sabre), 1968 Golden Knights, P-51D (Lou IV), Tracy Pilurs and her "Pretty Purple Puddytat" miniplane, and many more flying and static exhibitions. The video ends with an A-Bomb civil defense drill (very cool to watch when your under 10!). Ahhhh, this is back in the days when airshows were airshows, and the spectators were in as much danger as the performers!
There are still some unacknowledged performers and aircraft in this video. If you can identify an aircraft or performer in this video, please let me know the time and I'll update the annotations.
