This line-up gradually gets intense almost every other day, now there's the Blue Angels and the A-10 Demo Team. And more B-25's of course. Honestly I envy this airshow.

No demo. I don't think they have it approved for shows yet.

Ahhh... That would make sense. (I.E, No demo. I don't think they have it approved for shows yet.).

KC Airshow July 3/4 also did not have a Fat Albert Demo,

Surprisingly Fat Albert did fly in the show.
US Navy Leap Frogs were at the KC Airshow as well.
Fat Albert was used as the Parachute Drop Aircraft. (Never saw that before).
No Leap Frogs at TOM of course.

The New C-130J paint Scheme is Sharp.
