Back by popular demand! The Army Aviation Heritage Foundations “Sky Soldiers” will be back on static AND selling rides throughout the entire #SpiritAirshow weekend! We cannot wait to have the iconic Hueys and Cobras buzzing the skyline again.

Ride bookings will be available directly through the AAHF in 2022. Tickets for our show, June 11-12th are on sale now: https://spirit-airshow.com/tickets/

AAHF Gateway & Legacy will provide two UH-1H Hueys, an AH-1F Cobra, and an OH-58 Kiowa for living history flight experiences and static displays at the wonderful Spirit of St. Louis Air Show!

I'm assuming this is probably as a static display:



I am still surprised they didn't get anything from ACC, but perhaps we'll still get some more military acts. A B-2 from Whiteman is probably a good bet, or perhaps we'll get a US Navy Legacy Flight or a C-17 demo. Having Boeing as a title sponsor could also have some sway with a T-7 or F-15EX. Never know!

I still think this is going to be a great show. At the very least, having three four-engine WWII bombers in one airshow isn't exactly common anymore.

Not a static display. The aircraft is now Blue Angel #5.

Spirit of St Louis Air Show just got ACC support in the form of the F-35A Lightning II Demo Team.
