Any Chance the NASA Guppy and WB-57 will be on static display since they are based there ?

Booked my hotel for the show. Given that one of my other trips fell through I'm thinking I may stay a couple extra days and see the area also!

I attended this show in 2019 and 2020 but never saw either aircraft. It doesn't mean you won't but NASA doesn't seem to throw much toward the show.

I recommend the NASA tram tour at the NASA Johnson Space Centre. My dad and I went there the morning after the airshow the year we went before our flight back home. The tour, and the whole museum there, were fantastic!

Thanks!

Unfortunately it will probably have to wait a year as I have decided to postpone my trip. I am not comfortable taking my parents into the heart of COVID country and I'm uneasy about going even myself. Thankfully Houston is a good show every year so I probably won't miss THAT much by going in the future. I'll sure miss an extra chance to see the Snowbirds though :(

I have all of my sightseeing plans saved in my brain for future use!

Probably a good plan. I don't blame you. As you say, it's great every year. Certainly was the year I went!
