2x 187th F-16's and an HH-65 (on Sunday) added

CC-150 confirmed to be dropped

More than likely an updated final aircraft list will come when they update the schedule

**C-5 confirmed by Thunder to be off the list :oops:
Not enough tails available from Trenton and AFRES pulled funding (C-5)..

The USN F-5s cancelled as well due to prioritized base ops

Sucks, but I guess it's expected. I'm ok losing the F-5's with the F-15 passes added, also nice to have some red tail F-16's added to the mix. Gathering of Corsairs, Mustangs, Texan II's, Vipers, and Herc's!!! :twisted:

Pretty upset about the C-5, I'll say that much though...

Anyone have an ETA on the F-16 Viper Team? I think it's today or tomorrow but I may head out there to catch them arriving. Thanks!

Does anyone know if the F-15s are going to be there both days or only one day?

I just noticed looking at the schedule that Screamin Sasquatch is no longer there or on TOM's website as a performer. That must have been really recent as it was listed a few days ago.
