Here is the preliminary 2019 schedule too... Usually this changes a bit year to year so take it with a grain of salt.

Agreed! I'm not sure what's more shocking; the Thunderbirds performing at Oceana, or the Blues skipping Oceana. The combination is a stunner for sure!awal2049 wrote: ↑Mon Dec 04, 2017 8:56 pmThunderbirds in Virginia Beach...never thought I'd see the dayAirshow4444 wrote: ↑Mon Dec 04, 2017 7:00 pm Here is the preliminary 2019 schedule too...

Along with both of you, I was a little confused by this as well. Looks like the Blues are skipping that and performing at NAS Lemoore that weekend instead! May have to plan to make a trip to CA for that show in 2019!RyanS wrote: ↑Mon Dec 04, 2017 9:09 pmAgreed!

We have gotten numerous messages from people in Lemoore in the past wondering when the Blues will be returning. I'm shocked they couldn't work both of them out but at least Lemoore will get some love.

Not looking to far into the future but kinda sucks for some of in Michigan for 2019 because nor the Blues or TBirds will be at any of the shows in the state that year. I suppose there are others shows around MI that i can attend as well tho.

I'm glad Thunder won't be hosting a team every year (although they may yet get a single ship demo in 2019); Selfridge won't return until 2020. I'm disappointed BC couldn't arrange it but they have moved away from teams lately - whether by choice or not. Not really any other options for a team to go to.alexp2805- wrote: ↑Mon Dec 04, 2017 11:07 pm Not looking to far into the future but kinda sucks for some of in Michigan for 2019 because nor the Blues or TBirds will be at any of the shows in the state that year.

Luckily, Cleveland has a team every year and is only a few hours away!

I'm surprised that Fort Wayne is back in 2019 and Grissom is having a show too. The distance between the two airports is about 70 miles, so I wonder if Fort Wayne will change to 2020 instead.
