The Lake Powell Air Affaire was one of the most dramatic air shows I’d ever experienced. The combination of dramatic landscape, highly skilled pilots and advanced aircraft made for an awe-inspiring sensory feast! That is, until the events of September 11, 2001. The show was shelved until 2010 when it returned as Lake Powell Wings & Wheels.

According to the Lake Powell Chronicle this year’s event will be on October 13 (2012):

Vote for your favorite locally-owned aircraft, model airplanes and classic cars on display. See skydivers fall from the sky. Ride along with a local pilot. Get a view of Page you’ve never seen before.

Here are a few of my favorite photographs I took from around 1998:
