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.
Excellent point!
Side note, if anyone sees me wandering around be sure to say hi. Once I see how things go on Saturday, I may try to set a meet up time (or if anyone one else wants to set one, I'll do my best to make it). Should be easier at TOM than Oshkosh

I sure hope it’s an oversight. I was really looking forward to seeing Screamin Sasquatch...never had the opportunity in the past.

Thanks Ryan, great news that it is there.
Anyone planning on doing a Huey ride tonight or over the weekend? I've been thinking about it.

I saw 8 Corsairs on the ramp when I left, and I've heard that a 9th apparently showed up? A group of 3 is/was working their way in.
A very tame day for arrivals today. The runway is just soooo far away even with the parallel show line.
Practice was short, just the P-51 acro (Swamp Fox), Michael Goulian, Class of 45, and the Viper Demo. The Viper lost an 18x18 panel off the jet during the demo, which doesn't sound big until you see it...

Wow, Viper Demo has had a string of bad luck lately. The delaminates over at RIAT and now this. They’ve got old birds like the other teams so I can understand the issues but it’s still terrible for them to be in the news like this.
Looking forward to attending tomorrow! Should be a great weekend overall.

Looking like Sunday is the day I'll be there. Both days are looking great for weather.

If the 9th showed up, and 3 more are on their way are we possibly getting 12 Corsairs? I assume the 3 together would be Collings, Godspeed, and Louis Horschels. If that is the case, what would the 12th be?
As of this morning everybody was saying 11 Corsairs!
Thanks!

I was watching the practice demo from Ecourse and saw the emergency personnel head towards the runway as the Viper was taxiing in so I was wondering what was going on. Must have been searching for that panel.

Actually, that was just the planned emergency response drill. The panel didn't get mentioned until the jet was in and parked, then they sent a truck out to roam around looking for it
