(Ex: B-25 Mitchell ’Yankee Warrior’). Thanks if you can answer that.
I think we can assume the Hellcat is the one from Fagen Fighters that had it's first post restoration flight last month.

Due to the fly-in nature of the event, we can't really give a firm "yes" on an aircraft list, but we should have some verbals after this weekend.

That one is owned by John O'Conner now apparently. I am really excited to see it!

As am I. I’ve never seen this aircraft appear at any other shows so this plane will definitely be getting a lot of attention. Makes me excited as to what else might appear at the show.
