Any WIXers within stone's throw of Milwaukee, we've got flybys planned for the downtown parade (Wisconsin Avenue) with the T-6 formation taking off at 1100 hours, followed soon after by a T-28 formation, then a jet two-ship (T-33, T-2 Buckeye). We're launching out of Waukesha County Airport (KUES).

I saw the post about RickH's UH-1--any other flybys planned elsewhere?

Vintage Wings is planning a series of fly-bys at the National War Memorial in Ottawa on Sunday at 11 AM.

Last year the weather was questionable and the F-18s cancelled. Tim Leslie had just enough ceiling, so the VWC Mustang was the only thing in the air for the cermony.

The Heritage Flight Museum will be having an open house on Sunday afternoon. Will have several T-6's and the Mustang flying, weather permitting.

We will be flying the B-25 "Pacific Prowler" over Downtown Fort Worth, and Waxahachie Texas Saturday morning.
Then on to Fort Worth Spinks (KFWS) for a fly in.

Warbird Adventures generally does one in the Kissimmee/St. Cloud area with the SNJs (sometimes, there's even a B-25 on hand to escort)........Chuck would most likely know for sure on that one..........

I'll be at China Lake again. I guess all i'll get is Marine Cobras and F16's and a couple of F22's. Oh woe is me. :(

Doing the Waco show during which we always salute and honor the Veterans. Some of the planes also do the fly over at Waxahachie before the show.....I believe......they have done that in the past.

Is there a "TFR" in effect this weekend over Waco? Saw something about George being in town from Thursday through Monday.

Yes......but it's for his arrival today and departure on Monday. And as I read it, Friday thru Sunday will be OK.

About month ago I had to give Darlene N number, Make Model and S/N of plane and my SS# and almost the name of my first and only born :lol: :P It was for the Secret Service so......I guess we're on the list. I suggested an invitation be extended to George since we'll be at TSTC; not sure if an RSVP has been received by the Ranger Wing..... LOL

Let me revise this....Friday thru Sunday we will still be under the expanded P-49 rules for entering and leaving however. The TFR today and Monday are specific times for TSTC.
