This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

Oshkosh. If someone told me I could only go to one airshow a year, it would be this one. The people are great, the show is amazing. I never miss it.

With compliments to Chino and the P-59 (someday I hope....), I say Thunder Over Michigan in August is the place to be for warbirds.

The 2008 Millville Airshow page is up with the dates and a screen splash only right now. However they say the Wings N Wheels Show will be at the NJ Motorsports Speedway. Looks like it won't be at MIV!? Anybody have more info? (Although the description below aludes to "aircraft on display" - Is there a runway at the track?)


September 20 - 21
