Following the Eurocopter, Vicky Benzing took to the skies in her Stearman. After that the Erickson Aircraft collection displayed two of their WWII era warbirds (an F4U Corsair and a P-40 Kittyhawk)

Finally gotten to editing some photos from this show. The variety in the performer lineup was quite impressive this year, especially taking into consideration that it is a free airshow.
