Thunder Over Michigan 2023

[martin_sam_2000]

F-15 Strike Eagles are gone as well. A lot of cancellations.

F-15E are still on the list...they are listed under the "schedule" section and not the aircraft list as they are flybys only and not landing.... semantics

but they are still flying in the show!!!!

not semantics ...hes correct the 4X F-15s of the 173rd FW are gone

But it is...

there were 2 groups of F-15's scheduled to be there

4 F-15 C/D's from Oregon ANG on static, listed on the aircraft list, now cancelled

2 F-15E's from Seymore Johnson doing flybys and only listed on the flying schedule. they are still flying in the show.

Check again.

The list and schedule have been updated independently of each other, but if something is removed from one it's a near sure thing it'll be removed from the other in the next update.

Ugh. Lots of cancellations the last few weeks. Hopefully they find stuff to fill the gaps on the static line.

Still excited!!

And ALL the Eagles are gone now!

Unfortunately I sustained an eye injury over the weekend and as a result I cannot attend Thunder Over Michigan. Even with the endless cancelations and underwhelming lineup for a 25th anniversary show I am disappointed.

I have 2 each of the following tickets if anyone is interested:

Friday August 11th Taxiway Photography Package

Saturday August 12th Officers Club

Sunday August 13th Photo Tour Photo Pit

As of today all of these tickets are sold out for days listed.

Strike Eagles may be gone, but a CF-188B "exhibition" has been added. Honestly, I'll happily take that swap, since legacy Hornets of any kind are few and far between at this point, and it seems RCAF flying displays are becoming especially rare in states not named California.

If the F-15 exhibition was going to be anything like 2019, then from what I've heard the CF-118 exhibition should be a little more entertaining. Would've been nice to have them both, but..

Was that the 2 flat passes then they left?

I’ve been told that the F-22 and CF-18 have arrived. I’m close to the airport and didn’t hear or see anything so I’m not sure how true that is?

I am close to Selfridge and there was a lot of activity today that wasn't A10/KC-135 traffic. I couldn't see what it was due to the low cloud cover and rain however. F35s fueling maybe? I counted four takeoffs.
