Thought I'd share some of my photos from the rest of the show in this thread (see the Heritage Flight thread). If you like Warbirds, you need to find a way to go to this show. Hands down the best Warbird show in the US.

Here's of partial list (according to my recollection) of what was there and FLEW in the show. Nine P-51's including an A and a C model, two SBDs, two Zeros, three P-40s, five Corsairs, P-63, TBM, Skyraider, Tigercat (plus two other statics), N9MB Flying Wing, AT-12, P-26, P-38, Sea Fury, two B-25s, two C-47s, Pb4Y, Hellcat, Spitfire XIV, P2, F-86, T-33, MiG 15 and two Yak 3s.

Highlights in photos...

Great photos!

Might go there this year. How is it for photography? Are the best spots found inside our outside the show ground?

Resurrecting an old thread because the lawsuit the started before the 2017 airshow has been settled, and the event will continue in 2018 and beyond:
