https://flysnf.org/activities/airshow/airshow-schedule/
Schedule and Statics list on the website
New performer according to the schedule: Erik Edgren T-Clips
Seems like they decided to still keep the CH-46 on the statics list even after confirming that was a typo.
ScaleWings will also have one of their SW-51's flying in the show which will be cool to see.

Erik Edgren was at the event in 2022. The 2022 event marked his first time performing at SUN 'n FUN. However, this time he will be showcasing his NEW nighttime act as well as his daytime acts.

Looks like the CAF AirPower Tour will no longer be attending due to maintenance issues.
