Anyone else hoping for an evening arrival by the Rhino? Let's hope for a few "missed approaches" at the very least. :D

I would like them to arrive like they did back in 2016 with the Tora Tora Tora planes. This year is shaping up to be exactly like 2016 performer wise.

I’m hoping we get to see a couple 4-Ship Legacy Flights and Heritage Flights this year.

The F-22 demo is scheduled for Milwaukee weekend of July 25th and 26th. EAA doesn't have it on their schedule, but what are the chances the Raptor is staged at EAA and does a few flybys (mini-demo) on the way to Milwaukee? I think that's what happened last year as Milwaukee had a full F-22 demo. Also, aside from the 4th of July weekend, the F-35 is not scheduled for the rest of the month. Any chance this could sneak into EAA...?

I'm personally hoping YES to both of your questions!! That would be awesome!

I would say yes to F-22 stopping by before heading to Milwaukee and no on the F-35. I was personally hoping for the F-35C demo to come but we get the super hornet demo at least.

Yeah - and the F-16 as well. Perhaps an F-35 static. Last year the F-35 came in Friday afternoon and did a few passes before taking its spot on the tarmac. Awesome!

I’ve heard a rumor of them maybe having the F-35B on the ground this year. If that becomes true that would be epic.

F-22 demo staged out of OSH to the Milwaukee show in 2015, too.
