Was hoping tickets would be available by now. The website says they would be on sale starting July 2022, but I guess that could mean anytime in the month. Same for the performer list, as 2021 is still up for now.

Update from the Warbirds Over Monroe Air Show's Facebook page.
Tickets are currently available for purchase for the 2022 Warbirds Over Monroe Air Show:
https://www.eventsprout.com/.../warbird ... monroe-air...
Our faithful will see we had to raise our adult ticket prices a bit to help meet our increased costs. We have been fortunate to have not raised ticket prices in 10 years and we are still keeping our event free to kids under 12 and keeping our Veteran tickets to a minimum. Food, fuel... need we say more.
A performer list will be shared soon, but you all know we will certainly have our staple of fighters: P51 Mustangs, a P40, P63 King Cobra, FG-1D Corsair. We will some some great t6 Trojans, C46 The Tinker Belle, The Alabama Boys will be back as will the Jet Truck. Chef Pitts, Extreme Flight, and the Full Throttle Air Show team will also be here.
And much, much more...

Attention Photographers!!!
Warbirds Over Monroe is pleased to announce a very limited number of photographer pit passes for our 2022 Air Show.
New this year we are offering the opportunity for a limited few, to shoot pictures at the air show on Saturday from three designated locations for optimum, unobstructed viewing areas, along with early access and preferred parking.
Photographers will be allowed to enter the airfield at 6:30 a.m. and we will have select aircraft on display to capture morning shots with hopefully a sunrise backdrop.
Photographers will be under the direction of world renowned aviation photographer Ricardo von Puttkammer https://www.facebook.com/ricardo.vonputtkammer and will be allowed to move freely from two photography locations on the crowd side of the show as well as have roughly an hour in a designated area across the runway allowing for a truly unique perspective during the flight potion of the show.
Each photo pass is $125 and includes admission to the show, preferred parking, an additional general admission ticket for Sunday and expert guidance during the event.
Be advised this is for individuals only (not groups or photographers with young children) there will be only 10 people allowed to participate.

Looks like the P-63 is out and MAM is bringing a Skyraider and a TBM (not sure if flying or static)

Last minute substitution, MAM is sending their FM-2 Wildcat instead of the TBM.

Five from yesterday. It was tough working this weekend knowing what happened and our Tora team losing a pilot in Dallas in the accident. But we worked through the pain and put on a good pyro show for the crowds.
