As for the bombers for the Ellsworth Airshow, on Saturday we plan on having the Bomber Trifecta Flight with a B-1, B-52, and B-2 in formation around noon time led in by a formation of B-25J Mitchells. Following that will be a single pass by the B-2. After the B-2 pass, we will have 2 more passes by the B-25s followed by a single pass of a B-52. Following the B-52 will be a pair of B-1s for a series of passes. It's a heck of a way to start the show on Saturday!
Later on Saturday we will have the B-1s recover just prior to the Blue Angels demonstration.
On Sunday, we do not have the B-52 or B-2. We have the B-25 Flight around 12:25pm leading in a pair of B-1s. Then 2 more passes by the B-25s followed by the pair of B-1s for a series of passes. Later in the afternoon the B-1s will recover just prior to the Blue Angels demonstration.
A public schedule will be released in early May. We are still fine tuning a few things with the warbird flight.

Wow that sounds amazing, we are going to be there when the gates open at 9am on Saturday. This is shaping up to be the top military airshow in North America this year. Will the F-35 and F-16 be doing multiple flypasts?
Blue Angel Super Hornets, F-22, B-1B, F-35, F-16, B-2, B-52 etc, all in the air, we simply cannot wait.
Thanks a lot for the updates

Good question, especially considering there is a separate 3 pass demo later in the show.
I am apparently on the media list for the base but haven't heard any details yet on what they have planned. I am just hoping I can see stuff on Friday and get my camera bag in.

Im a little bummed about the B-2 and especially the B-52 being Saturday only but I am really excited for this show!
And, a P-38?
Always wanted to see one of those in the air.
