Warbird WWII Anniversary Flyovers

Post by RyanS » Tue May 05, 2020 5:07 pm

Separate from all of the military flyovers going on, I've seen several museums/warbird groups saying that they will perform flyovers of their areas to honor the 75th anniversary of the end of WWII. Arsenal of Democracy was supposed to be on Friday but it has been pushed back to September due to the pandemic.

Here's some info for the CAF Arizona Wing flyover of Phoenix:

Apparently a 5-ship flight of T-6s and T-34s - should be a good showing from our CAF WI wing and 'the usual suspects' from KUES ;)
