This show will be mostly rides and warbirds put on by the Yankee Air Museum. They will try to bring whatever they can fit. Expect something like an A-10 demo.

Correct. The hope is that the A-10 Demo Team will be able to join.

While the dates are July 6th-9th...ride flights will begin on the 6th. The air show proper will be July 8th-9th (Saturday & Sunday). The overall encompassing dates are the 6th through the 9th (Thursday through Sunday).

This will make it an action packed few weeks for Michigan as another (hopeful) show will be held in late June at a TBA soon location, then Battle Creek, then Muskegon. All bam, bam, bam!

Is the June show another Yankee show or separate?
