The other pairing that came to mind, though the B-25 hasn't been confirmed yet, is God and Country along with Sky King from Mid America Flight Museum. Sky King has extensive combat history, including missions in the Mediterranean Theatre of Operations. Flying that with Rosie's Reply from YAM would be a pretty special pairing of MTO veterans with actual combat history.GRNDP51 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 16, 2021 5:31 pmI don't think there is confirmation on Miss Hap yet, so assuming this would be Yellow Rose and TAB from context here.kalamazookid wrote: ↑Tue Jun 15, 2021 11:32 pmI'm assuming that means "That's All, Brother" is also coming since they are operated by the same wing.Bretten Bailey wrote: ↑Tue Jun 15, 2021 11:01 pm
My bad, I had forgotten that "Yellow Rose" was already announced.

Aircraft List has been updated:
Noteworthy changes include:
15 (+1) B-25's that have been announced previously
(2) Mustangs announced previously (P-51B "Old Crow" and P-51D "Gentleman Jim"
T-28 (warbird static)
(2) T-44c's from VT-31 (military static)
Anything to fill up the ramp and spice up arrival day is very welcomed with how little time they have since changing to the static friendly format
Goal is still 20 B-25's, but this is getting less likely by the day. Fingers crossed for 18 or 19.
There could also be more P-51's, likely flying with YAM's B-17 at some point during the show.

Do you know if there is anything that might make a surprise flyover during the airshow?GRNDP51 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 01, 2021 12:14 am Aircraft List has been updated:

A few hiccups on BE, but working on it.

Add Tri-State Air Museum's "Yankee Doodle" as #16.
There was some miscommunication with Berlin Express that is being worked out. Hopefully it will formally be added soon. A few others are leaning in the "yes" column more and more as we get closer.
So close to 20!

Are you allowed to say which others are almost to a yes of coming?GRNDP51 wrote: ↑Sat Jul 03, 2021 9:19 am Add Tri-State Air Museum's "Yankee Doodle" as #16.

Just catching up on everything after a couple weeks offline. I'm a little bummed the Atlas isn't going to be included in the morning show but the rest looks pretty solid and I'm totally fine if that's it. I would personally rather see fewer acts fly for a longer amount of time than have them try to cram everything in with only a couple passes. The extra half hour in the morning will certainly help.
Tri-State Warbird Museum P-51D Mustang "Cincinnati Miss" has also been added!

Always enjoy the Warbird Digest articles on TOM:
http://warbirdsnews.com/warbirds-news/t ... ering.html
There's already some "discussion" about what a record means. Pretty simply, anything over TOM's previous record of 15 will be a record airshow gathering. The next step is defining what the 2012 record really is; whether it's 19 or 20 airframes. Already discussed earlier in this thread was that 20 never flew together. There were 20 on the ground at Urbana, but 19 flew to the main event at Dayton. 20 flying together at TOM would be enough for the record in my book.
