Re: Milwaukee Air & Water Show 2022

I wanted to offer my thoughts on this year's show....First off it's the most crowded I have ever seen it..which I think is a good thing. I was very disappointed that they have fenced off the entire lakeshore...between the closed beaches (due to rip currents?) and viewing area restrictions there wer...

Re: Thunder Over Louisville 2022

I am loving all the military (if it shows) and warbirds. Looks like one (Younkin) civilian act essentially? Not sure who, besides Younkin, will perform at night. A long delay between flying end and 9:30 pyro start? Historically there hasn't been much down time between the end of flying and pyro. Ma...

Re: Thunder Over Louisville 2021

Thunder producer Wayne Hettinger said the show itself will adapt well in the age of COVID-19. The fireworks will be less about sound, and more about color. Before the fireworks go off, the air show will run from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. A couple of the planes set to take part dropped out on Wednesday morni...

Re: Thunder Over Louisville 2021

Can someone who has access to the Flight Box Notam post it or at least the location. I am guessing the planes might be taking off from Louisville Mohamed Ali airport National Guard Ramp but that is just a guess. If anyone knows please share it. Thanks. The only applicable NOTAM so far was issued on...

One additional update with a little more information. According to this article, the air show is still "on", but not a lot of details beyond that. https://www.courier-journal.com/story/entertainment/events/kentucky-derby/festival/2021/01/26/what-know-kentucky-derby-festival-2021-dates-canc...

Re: Thunder Over Louisville 2021

The date posted for Louisville by the USAF F-16 Fighting Falcon Demo is interesting. As it stands right now, the Kentucky Derby is on schedule to be run on the traditional first Saturday in May with limited capacity. Thunder Over Louisville is typically the kickoff to the Kentucky Derby Festival and...
