Re: Northern Illinois Airshow 2021

Tentative list of performers for this year. Pretty typical lineup for Waukegan that includes the home debut of the new WHF Corsair. Also nice to see Jeff Kaney in the lineup with both the F-5 and MiG-17.

Re: Thunder Over Michigan 2021

If this is really happening and the Blues are headlining the morning, that extra half hour they added to the beginning of the morning show should help preserve some variety in the lineup. I signed up for the morning because I prefer the single ship demos and a shorter routine that allows more time f...

Re: EAA Air Venture Oshkosh 2021

This was as specific as the webinar got, sorry. Nothing specific about demo teams with regards to the F-18 was mentioned, just that they will be flying multiple Legacy Flights throughout the week. They did say the F-16 will fly at other times during the week as well. Someone asked about the Blues an...

Re: EAA Air Venture Oshkosh 2021

Sounds like the Erickson P-40 and SBD are no longer possibilities. They have been removed from the Air Expo lineup the weekend before which likely means that they are not coming east at all. Yea they wanted to come to TOM, but too much $$ to not fit the theme. Not sure who decided the P-40/SBD comb...

Re: EAA Air Venture Oshkosh 2021

Hey all, This will be my first AirVenture so I am just curious what to expect. I was also wondering if anyone had some insight to the A-10 CAS demo and possibly statics and if, since the theme is WWII+1, they would bring the 3 retro A-10s from the ANG. Saw the pictures of the Fort Wayne Heritage bi...
