Looking good, but if I may say so, it looks a bit thin. Heres to hoping the lineup will get a bit bigger.

Im not sure if Im even going to make. Ill be flying in from Ireland the day before. Then I'd be jumping in a car for the 6 hour ride. Then again seeing that Mosquito and P-38 would be pretty cool.

"Thin" with some really shapely bumps! Like the two sexiest twins of the Second World War, together for the first time in ... ?

I do hope we see some additions from usual supporters Clyman, Duffy and CAF to round it out, but I have no complaints about the headliners.

There was some note about maybe Duffy would bring something. But I think it would be up to Tom. This is no way anything hard fact. Just hearsay.

If he does, it will probably be the B-25. Likes to bring family and friends. Wish he would hire a few more pilots to fly some of the fighters as escort.

The first time since the Saturday of Flying Legends 1996 I would think. Sadly the P-38 and Mosquito that flew that day, along with their crews, were both gone by the end of the following weekend. :(

I just heard from a friend of mine that flies the B25/C47/T6 for the AAM at Republic.

"Hey Peter,
So far only the C-47 was booked, they are hoping they ask for a fighter also. I am pretty sure I will be on the C-47 unless something changes. Look forward to hanging at the TopGun tent!
Nick"

The AAM has been at every show in recent years. I sure hope they request the P-40 or F4U. (Or maybe even the TBM which is back flying again after a few years hiatus!)

If its the one I think it is you are sooooooooooo correct.Would it be the old alpine fighter collections bird?

Personally I'd vote for the P-47, which has been making the rounds this year (Reading; booked at Michigan) and would complete the triad with the 51s and 38. But it is good to know AAM is in the mix in some fashion.
