Looking forward to a great 2022 season! Heres my schedule!
Current Plan
Kicking off the season with a fun show in Louisiana! I have a friend who was the NCOIC of the Louisiana ANG so this is his home show!
March 19 - NAS JRB New Orleans Air Show - Belle Chasse, Louisiana
Next is Sun N Fun which was a highlight of my season! We'll head to this one with some friends as well!
April 5-10 - Sun N Fun Aerospace Expo - Lakeland, Florida
Never been to this one, but it's only a couple hours away so why not!
April 23 - Vidalia Onion Festival - Vidalia, Georgia
Also a 2021 highlight! I'm super excited to shoot more pics from "inside the box"
May (Date TBD) - Black Flag Airshow Practice - Hampton, Georgia
Also a first! This will be my first Tennessee show as well!
September 10 - Smoky Mountain Airshow - Knoxville, Tennessee
Been on my yearly schedule since 2016 and I'm not breaking the tradition!
October 15 - Wings Over North Georgia - Rome, Georgia
One of my all time favorite shows! Definitely one of the biggest weekend shows I've been to!
October 22 - NAS JAX Airshow - Jacksonville, Florida
And finishing the season off with my hometown show (I fly out of this airport) in Peachtree City! It's been 6 years since the Blues have been in town, so that'll be nice!
November 5 - Atlanta Airshow - Peachtree City Georgia
Possible
May 21 - Space Coast Warbird AirShow - Titusville, Florida
June 18 - Memphis Airshow - Millington, Tennessee
October 29 - Central Florida Air and Space Show - Sanford, Florida
Stay safe y'all,

UPDATE 07-03-22
My 2022 schedule is very back end loaded, hope some spring events open up. Update went to a couple of shows in May-June.
Going:
Good Neighbor Day, Atlanta - Navy warbird show with great line-up, popped up out of nowhere
Spirit of St Louis - Great warbird line-up Bombers (B-29, Privateer, B-17), fighters (Mossie, 2 Spits, 2 Hurricanes, P-51 and Corsair), caught the Nasa Guppy arrival. Statics were impressive (Guppy, Navy Osprey, 4 F-5 Tiger IIs, all of the warbirds mentioned, several current and warbird helos)
Thunder Over Michigan - whole weekend, it's been many years since TOM was in July before Oshkosh. Fingers crossed this is the last year of the drive-in format.
Oshkosh - whole week
Smoky Mountain Air Show - both days, my hometown show woohoo! I hope they can figure the parking/entry out, it was a cluster**** last time. Update parking same, just double the price. Line-up is weak to be polite. If it wasn't my hometown I would not go.
Wings Over North Georgia - best weather day, they've been shut out of military demos so far. Update F-16 demo is headliner, may go may not.
Upper Cumberland Airfair, Cookeville, TN - Same weekend as above may do both
Warbirds Over Monroe or Atlanta Airshow - these are most likely on the same weekend. Leaning toward Monroe, as I'm a warbird guy. Update a week apart will likely only go to Monroe.
Shows I'm keeping an eye on to possibly go:
TBM Reunion - never been, weather seems to be an issue every year. Update didn't go due to bad weather.
Spirit of St. Louis - went in 2019, had a great time. Update went see above

Here are the shows on my calendar!
Ellsworth
Dover (I’ll probably do either Ellsworth or Dover, leaning toward Ellsworth)
Ft.Wayne
Selfridge
Thunder Over Michigan
Hoping to add a later one too, maybe Airshow London or Pikes Peak.
Except for Ft. Wayne and TOM, this will be my first time going to all the rest.

Yeah, ain't that the truth...
In early 2020 I was starting to plan a month long visit to England to do some mili-tourism.
This would include RIAT and RNIAD at Yeovilton.
Well..., that didn't happen. 2020 was a complete washout.
I didn't even bother dreaming about 2021, as even US shows were out for me, due to the Canada/US border being closed.
So things are just starting to look up with the border even reopening to Non-essential travel.
Then Omicron appears...
![Evil or Very Mad :evil:](./images/smilies/icon_evil.gif)
Maybe, just maybe, I might do another long road trip down the west coast, then to:
MCAS Yuma, March 12 (I saw this in 2018, great show!)
Red Flag 22-2 at Nellis AFB (Second week, IF the dates are correct. NOT yet confirmed.)
https://www.dreamlandresort.com/info/flags.html
Luke Days, Luke AFB, AZ, March 19 & 20 (I saw the Sunday show in 2018, the day after Yuma. Also a great show)
Pima PASM museum in Tucson, AZ

Here’s my list for the year. A lot of concerns about travel and military base issues. This list isn’t firm by no means:
NWOC Feb 24-27 (non Airshow but Airshow related)
NAS NO Mar 19-20
Shaw->SNF->Charleston Apr 2-10
Ellsworth AFB May 14-15
Landis fly in may 20-22
STL June 11-12 possible alternate
Fagen Airshow June 18
Goshen-> Selfy July 9-10 or just selfy
NATA/Oshkosh maybe WOTN or just Oshkosh July 23-31
Mattoon, IL. Aug 20.
Foreign trip around before Labor Day - unsure due to COVID .
Reno or oceana sept 16-18
WOTB October 1-2
Edwards ->POF maybe just edwards oct 14-23
Nellis nov 5-6
Monroe 12-13?? Unsure of date currently
Kind of a crazy year. Trying a few new shows with a couple expected large Air Force shows. Again hugely tentative right now especially with the way base shows are canceling. Let’s cross our fingers!
