Hillsboro Airshow 2009

I really hope I'm posting this in the right place, but anyone on here going to be at the Hillsboro Airshow Sunday the 30th? A second question, if anyone was at the airshow today (Saturday) or maybe has some insider info, can someone tell me why the Thunderbirds ended their show nearly 15 minutes ear...
