You might have a few pissed off people with the A-10 in the picture since it is not scheduled to be in the show.

Watch aircraft including the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds as they take off and return through GCIA on Chicago Air Show Weekend!

The Gary Chicago International Airport has so much potential considering how overcrowded both the O'Hare and Midway Airports are nowadays.This Airport has room to grow.

I guess if you fly international you can fly in and out of Gary. 😡

Before the aircraft take to Chicago lakefront skies, the action begins at #gcia! Watch military and civilian aircraft take off and land throughout Air Show weekend August 15-16th!

I remember when it was free and you set by the fence along the terminal

Honestly we were so disappointed with this experience. We did this last year and you basically pull into the parking lot and sit on your car. You hardly see anything at all. Too much blocking the fence to see the runway. It use to be awesome years ago to walk up to the planes and a few you were able to see inside of. Of course that was right before 9/11. Now that was a experience. They do however put on a great show on the lake front.

Do you get to leave the parking lot? Anything cool there to do for kids who want to be future pilots?? Would love more info

Air Force Veteran! Looking forward to it!!!!

Do you have to pay to get in to the airport parking lot?

Trust me I will be there! Thursday to Sunday lord's will

Well, someone finally woke up and decided to make money off of it. Congrats.

Used to be free tonpark and watch. 20 to be behind a fence all views obstructed

No view of runways anymore, went last year, used to be awesome… not anymore…. you may get 1 flyby pass as the aircraft are returning….maybe

Taco trucks prices r to high and mostly the mayors VIPs will all be there

You guys do a poor job. you keep all the ups stuff against the fence so you can't see the runway
