To say the coverage was "fine"! I have yet to see in the years that the show has exsisted any outstanding articles or interviews with the performers. It must be we are so concerened about stuffing money into an ice arena that does nothing for the tax payers or has any entertainment value for the city of Janesville. If the airshow goes away, I hope the ice arena can take in 60,00 fans in a weekend!

We are very fortunate to have an event like this, since our airport is located outside the city limits and be able to have a jet act. You can make the comparisons to Rockford,but this city has had nothing to offer. To me it is about giving the support to keep this event coming back. This is "great" entertainment value for the money. There were more display aircfaft than in the past and it will continue to get better. My good friend does all the refueling for this out of the Janesville Jet Center. I personally see the hard work and preperation they do for just a few days. As a matter of fact the Blue Angels PR department, pilots and all the other performers have stated that this is the best refueling team they have ever worked with as far as the timing of fuel when they need it and the other things they may need for their act. The newspaper coverage has to get alot better than what it has been. They don't seem to put any real effort to try to cover this event. There are hardly any pictures and interviews with pilots or staff. This thing "rocks"! Lets keep it here.

I live right next door and I am lucky the fire was on the other end of there house. I also might of sustained damage. The fire fighters did a great job of putting it out quickly. Everyone got out safe including there pets. I hope people would also take fire safety seriously in their own home. This is how fast someones life can change.
