Trojan Thunder confirmed.
Just 28 days to go until #SNF20 kicks off on March 31. This year we welcome back the fantastic T-28 team Trojan Thunder to the skies over Lakeland on our opening day! Have you ever seen them perform?

Did Sun-N-Fun do something to make the US Navy mad?!?! I'm very surprised they didn't get the Rhino demo or even a Legacy Flight. The USAF will be well represented with the Thunderbirds and F-35 Demo.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to the show. I will definitely be attending Saturday for both the day and night show. My work schedule may allow me to head over there another day during the week, possibly Wednesday.

Sun n Fun has been postponed. The current reschedule date is May 5-10, but that isn't fully confirmed. The Air Force is not supporting events until May 15th, so the show will either have to go forward without AF support or push back even further.

I'm not sure how that's going to work. No USAF representation would certainly be disappointing. My guess is it gets cancelled altogether. Or maybe moved to the Fall? There goes all my airshows for the first half of the year. Maybe I need to travel out of state for one this Summer, if things have calmed down by then.
