Better action in the arrivals than with the airshow itself today. Hoping for more military and warbirds in the airshow the next few days.

Tigercat passes were sweet! Wish they would have flown a few more. The concert fly-by's were a four-ship of the two Shaw F-16s with two P-51s, followed by a KC-135. The Shaw F-16s really beat up the field with their go-arounds afterwards.

I was surprised to see the Meteor after what transpired with the museum pilot in Sheboygan on Friday. A real tribute to the dedication of the pilots associated with WHAM.

Does anyone know what the "big surprise" is going to be at the start of tomorrow's airshow at 230p?

Pure speculation on my part, but I am going to guess a water drop by the Canadair fire bomber.

I noticed that the schedule on the EAA website for Saturday is different than the one posted here. Can anyone confirm that the military planes will be flying on Saturday?
