Re: Helicopter demos at US airshows?

I also saw something similar with a Loach, Hueys, Cobras, a Skyraider, Twin Otter, Beaver, O-2 and others at Battle Creek in the mid-90s, but I don't remember the name of the group. Would be cool (and costly) if something like that could be revived. 69th Battallion. Couldn't tell you when they stop...

Re: TBM Avenger Reunion & Salute to Veterans 2024

Can you do something about the weather? :lol: Every year it seems to rain. We had beautiful weather last year! Glad to see "Yankee Lady" back. When the weather is good, this is one of my favorite events. Let's hope it cooperates again! The Huey will be coming from Yankee officially now to...

Re: Selfridge Air National Guard Base Open House & Air Show 2024

Besides the hometown A-10s and KC-135s participating (may be the final show for both at Selfridge), Grant Nielsen will be flying in his CAP 232 and the US Customs and Border Patrol will also be performing a demo with their UH-60 Blackhawks. The US Army Golden Knights will also be performing. More to...

Re: Battle Creek Field of Flight Air Show & Balloon Festival 2024

I don't see the A10s on the website, are they confirmed? Yes. It's the A-10C Thunderbolt II single-ship demo from Air Combat Command. The website hasn't been fully updated with 2024 information yet but it is being worked on. what is the full list of performers? As of right now, this is where we are...

Re: Battle Creek Field of Flight Air Show & Balloon Festival 2024

Something happened while the 2024 updates were taking place that had all of the acts from the previous two years showed up. We have sent a note off to get that fixed...

Re: 2024 Greater Binghamton Air Show
