So just to confirm. no actual aircraft, just some display items and info on the museum and aircraft?

back in 2010 I paid $20 to sign one of the skins of Desert Rat. I have no idea if it is going to be used on the aircraft but I sure hope so. Would be cool to see in the future and a great way for restoration jobs like this to make some much needed $$$

Shaping up to be a great year! So glad I am making the trek up there.

Matt Younkin's website lists Thunder Over Michigan and includes it as a day/night show with the twin Beech. Can you confirm?

Many thanks for the continued updates!

Matt Youkin and Greg Shelton's Stearman Wing Walking act are both on the TOM website. Also the C-130J, which I believe is static.
