I was told about 10 aircraft would be arriving Thursday but no specific time or aircraft was offered. I'll be hanging around from noon to 3 or 4 or so.

I'd imagine the F16s will be arriving to PDX on thursday.

Are the F-16’s not allowed to land at HIO? I know in the past the Thunderbirds staged out of PDX.

For anyone with an extra day in portland that might be visiting for the show, 4 VFA-113 Super Hornets are training with the 142nd Fighter Wing at PDX. They should be flying thursday between 8-9am and 12-1pm.

Got some intel on Thursday; the Snowbirds advance jets are scheduled to arrive at noon and the rest of the team is scheduled to arrive at 2pm.

Hoping to cross paths with some of the west coast members!

So the Airshow team says that Friday afternoon will be rehearsal day. I wonder what shows up for Thursday. Snowbirds for sure.
