Looks like "Korean War Hero" will be participating as well. I'm thinking a Legacy Flight announcement is probably coming:

Growlers? Wonder what Navy demo they're getting? As of now they're not on any schedule (but its definitely fluid).

It's certainly possible they're not getting a Navy demo. I believe it was TOM a few years ago that they had a Legacy Flight with a Corsair and two Hornets that flew only for the Legacy Flight.

📣📣📣CALLING ALL STUDENTS AGES 14-18... WIN A FLIGHT WITH THE FAMOUS Phillips 66 Aerostars DEMONSTRATION TEAM!📣📣📣
In the United States, there is a shortage of people entering aviation and other #STEM-related fields. According to the National Association of Manufacturing, there will be 3.5 million STEM jobs by 2025, and more than 2 million of them will go unfilled because of the lack of highly skilled candidates.
#SpiritAirshow wants you to create a video 60-second commercial promoting one of these STEM career fields to people your age by MAY 1st!
All videos will be reviewed and posted to the Spirit of St. Louis Air Show and STEM Expo website for a public voting session. The winner who receives the most votes from the public (encourage your peers to vote!) will automatically win one of the Aerostars flights and an invitation to the Performer Reception on June 10th. The other two winners will be selected by the Spirit of St. Louis Air Show and STEM Expo Executive Committee. All finalists will be contacted the week of May 16, 2022.
20 Finalists will receive an invitation for 2 to our Performer Reception on the evening of June 10th where they will have the opportunity to meet Air Show Pilots and Performers.

It’s officially static display season! Let’s kick it off with several F-5E Tiger II”s, a first for #SpiritAirshow!

The F-5 has stood the test of time, and remains one of the greatest “aggressor” aircraft in both US Navy, Marines, and private inventory.

See these beautiful aircraft up close only with an air show ticket: https://spirit-airshow.com/tickets/
