Re: EAA Airventure Oshkosh 2022

Vintage Wings of Canada's Hawker Hurricane has flown. Sounds like the plan is to take it to Oshkosh this year.

Re: The Great Texas Airshow 2022

Wow, extremely jealous you got to see the A-20 in the air! That might be the first time it's actually flown in airshow. I don't remember seeing it fly at Oshkosh and I don't think it's made any appearances since then. Nice photos!

Re: Thunder Over Louisville 2022

Interested to hear what people think of this. I was tempted to make a weekend of it and go to the static display on Sunday as well, but what I've heard on the flying gives me pause. Would love to hear more about the new box, how many passes the aircraft make, how low they are and whether you're gett...

Re: 2022 TBM Avenger Reunion & Salute to Veterans - Peru, IL

One month until showtime! Any news on the number of TBMs expected? Teasers on other warbirds or vintage jets? From various posts and sources, it appears CAF Missouri Wing, Tri-State Warbird Museum, Wings of the North and Lake Erie Warbirds are all participating - I'm assuming with TBMs, but I'm not ...

Re: Airshow 50 - Now Skyfest 50

I have been to the Skyfest event before and it's probably very similar to how you described WOTN, though WOTN looks like it had better passes. While there was a decent amount of flying at Skyfest, most of the passes were directly overhead and you're so far from the runway that you don't get to see a...

Re: Airshow 50

Important note on the website: Advance ticket sales only - limited to only 2,000 tickets per day - valid only for the specific day purchased. I'm really hoping to go to this, but the limited ticket sales and the possibility of the border situation changing may make it impractical. I'm not really wil...
