Get ready to feel the need for speed as the US Navy's F/A-18F Super Hornet Demo Team is coming to the 2020 Racine Airshow!

Wow! Quite a lineup. Where are the planes staged? Mitchell Field in Milwaukee?

Idk. Right now the civilian teams are coming in on the 4th. The f22 practice will depend on the timing with Battle Creek and Dubuque, and Im not sure what's upnwith the F18. I would assume both jets will practice at some point on the 3rd.

One concern is the beach. We have had record floods and our beach is basically gone--- gotta hope the water level recedes a bit.

I believe both jets will be arriving on July 2nd. We are still awaiting word on a B52 flyover--- we'll see.

Considering the amount of Midwest shows on that day, we're really hoping we can pull this off! Shouldn't be too hard convincing (fingers crossed).

The shows looking great right now I reached out to Cabo a few weeks ago and asked if he is gonna practice on the 3rd and he said he was gonna but you never know. If the B52 does get approved will it do practice passes on the 3rd?

Yeah, Lake Michigan is at record high levels. Not sure if it will recede by then, unless a major dry regime sets up for a long time over spring into summer.
