Re: Purdue Aviation Day 2024

Fun day today! A-10 Demo Team flew Black Mamba today. Kind of tough to get photos due to the airport orientation, but it was an airshow on a day with good weather in April. Can't complain! The KC-135 and F-16 passes were a nice bonus. It should also be noted that this event is planned entirely by st...

Re: Purdue Aviation Day 2024

I work on campus and just got a little preview of the Heritage Flight while walking back from a meeting. The demo team was using the camo A-10. I think the Black Snake A-10 is supposed to be here, too. Also saw an F-18 arrive through my office window during lunch. Should be a fun day tomorrow. Weath...

Re: Wings By the Wabash 2024

Yankee Air Force B-25 and C-47 added per their schedule. As previously mentioned, I hope the airport gets a lot of support to help rebuild after the direct hit from the tornado last spring. I plan to attend.

Re: TBM Avenger Reunion & Salute to Veterans 2024

Too bad about "Yankee Lady." I swear that is the most snake-bitten aviation museum around.

Looks like the EAA B-25 "Berlin Express" is coming:

Re: 2024 A-10 Thunderbolt II Demo Team Schedule

When I saw the news that the A-10s at Davis-Monthan AFB were being divested, I figured this was going to be the case. I have three shows on my schedule featuring the A-10 and may end up with five depending on how late season plans shake out. Will be a nice opportunity to say farewell. This will crea...

Re: 2024 Spirit of St Louis Air Show & STEM Expo

That's a fine tradeoff. I haven't seen a -B yet, but the -C demo will probably be more extensive.
