Just saw two Thunderbirds flyover College Park!

The B-17 Flying Fortress that'll be flying in the airshow will be Yankee Lady from the Yankee Air Museum.

The European theater will be represented by the B-17G Flying Fortress “Yankee Lady” and the B-24 Liberator “Diamond Lil”, the B-25 Mitchell “Panchito” representing all theaters of WWII.

Random find. Supposedly the C-47 Skytrain "That's All Brother" will be on static display. It is currently at the MAM airport in Virginia Beach.

Do we have any idea what aircraft from the 89th will be doing flyovers which days?

As of this morning:

Friday: NONE
Saturday: C-40
Sunday: C-37

With the Queen's Funeral, many of the White Tops will be off station on mission requirements.

I might have one surprise this weekend but can't officially confirm it as part of the "airshow."

As for the static display, it's going to be LOADED! Lots of neat things on the ramp.

Hope there are some posts today of photos of the set-up.

David, thanks for taking the time to keep everyone updated it is much appreciated, I am sure you are busy getting everything ready! One more question for you - will there be any unusual statics beyond the military stuff - NASA, National Nuclear Security Administration, US Park Police, USNTPS?

The static display for this year is more geared towards the aircraft units/squadrons that are based at or commonly use JB Andrews and the aircraft from the past 75 years of the USAF. Some of the new USAF aircraft on display are impressive and the display has everything from the KC-46 to the new AC-130U. Warbirds will range from the P-51, B-25, B-24, B-29, to the B-17. It's a full and large ramp this year.

Saw the Thunderbirds practice in formation earlier then two flying with one of the refueling tankers. Pretty cool

The B1 came in Andrews around 5:00 this evening. Also saw an F-15 and F-22 come in later on, After the Thunderbirds had come back from the Air Tattoo.
