Next year's airshow to feature either SHOCKWAVE, AFTERSHOCK or Flash Fire Jet Truck per 2022 ICAS calendar.

It'll be SHOCKWAVE. You can also add Rob Holland to the list. We have a few other confirmations but will spread everything out .

[Bretten Bailey]

Phillips 66 Aerostars will be performing.
Phil Dacy will be our announcer again.

Still working on a few more acts and then we'll see where our budget is after ICAS (plus what goodies the military may support us with).

We have also added Erik Edgren (who will be flying a new night act) and Bill Stein as well.

Still have a bit of ways to go with our announcements but I'll post the lineup we have booked thus far. Still working on some and hopefully we can swing them. We also will feature the 75th Anniversary of the Air Force with the Thunderbirds & F-35 so we're hoping we may be able to score at least one or two other Air Force assets (even if they are just fly bye).
