Being timed with Oshkosh has its benefits!

I have not been thrilled with Milwaukee in my previous visits though, and Oshkosh has so much more that I really don't see me making it to Milwaukee

Milwaukee has definitely been hit-or-miss, sadly. If it's not no-show acts (or the Blues only being able to put up 3 jets), it's IMC keeping everything out of the box. Oshkosh is pretty much dead on the final Sunday, though, so I figure that's probably the best day for MKE.

LOL. Ill believe it when I see it. This show has a history of posting acts that magically disappear.

Heh, no kidding - the MH-53 is no longer listed, but now they list a C-17 flyby, and the Hornet demo is 'pending confirmation' now.

Dave, you are undoubtedly closer to the truth than any of us would like... now it's "pending _final_ confirmation"... Which, in airshow-speak is probably code for "final confirmation that we are most definitely not coming". Mike Wiskus is not on the civvy list anymore either.

Any updates for this show? It looks like the F/A-18 is still pending and F-22 will be Heritage only? Thanks.
