I just got that too!

Like they kinda read my mind. However, the website still says 11:00.

They really need to make sure their information matches up, it's confusing as heck, and you don't know which one to trust.

I'll trust the email, though!

Heard the Galaxy cancelled but it's still listed on the website. Anyone know for sure?

So looking at the schedule on the app,the 4 X Ohio F-16's are showing as display on Sunday.Maybe they are doing some flybys and leaving, sounds great!

Friday and Sunday also show a F-22 and F-15 flight together.

Not sure I understand why Saturday got left out of the cool F-15/F-22 flight. Also the F-35s are only listed for Friday/Sunday, when in the e-mail and website it lists them for all 3 days.

That's my one critisim of this show is that they say stuff will fly all 3 days, and it turns into 1 or 2 days. Does stuff change? Sure. But the show needs to be transparent with frequent updates on their website vs finding out 2 days before the Saturday show that there's no F-35 scheduled.

Just something that can hopefully be improved in the future.

The MC-130J also shows performing all 3 days so that may be wrong as well?

Some pics from arrival day today.

The Thunderbirds ended up doing their site survey, so that was fun.

The Makos F-16s were f-ing amazing. The ripped over us on Creamery Rd!

Fun day today!

Got this comment with regards to the F-35s. They have cancelled.

Not from the airshow itself, but the source is reliable.

Edit: The post was written by Diana Spremo who is involved with the show.
