Could any previous visitors advise if there are any issues with traffic inbound to DM? I’m travelling over from the UK ( via PHX ) and have never attended the show before.

I’ve attended the 2021 Thunder & Lightning show and from what I remember traffic coming into the base was quite long, at least to the Swan gate, but it was very well directed by DM personnel. They organize the shows pretty nicely and keep the line moving but there’s definitely lots of people that attend the shows each year.

Thank you. I’ve only been to a couple of US shows after a long hiatus and they’ve been really well organised so hoped DM would be the same. Was just trying to work out departure times from PHX.

As the show dates are closing in, I know of a few more statics that aren’t on the 355 FSS social medias, there will likely be more but these are the ones I am aware of.
-PB4Y Privateer
-Civil Air Patrol Cessna (172 or 182)
-EAA Tucson Chapter Homebuilts
-T-33 Shooting Star (Blue Angels or Copperheads color scheme)

These two were also mentioned before but I’ll mention them here again to simplify things
-Maid In The Shade B-25
-Old Number 30 C-47

The current weather forecast for this coming weekend shows mostly sunny skies with a high of around 66 - 68.
