We have just lined up a special "Victory Flight" to end the show, just before the Blues fly. It will include the Lancaster in formation with Russell groups Me-109 and Spitfire, and VWoC's Corsair and maybe their new P-40 or Mustang.

Excellent news Mike. Looks like TOM will have lots for everyone as usual.

Can anyone tell me from their experience at TOM if it's worth shelling out the extra $'s for the photog pass?

Neal Melton
Dr Brent Hisey's (just repainted)

And last but not least, my favorite, the one with the polka dots.

Hmmmm, don't see an OV-1 Mohawk listed. MIchael, are you interested in having a Mohawk at TOM? It was a major player during the Conflict in S.E. Asia...

The Mohawk would be an excellent addition to the lineup. I know that the lineup shown is preliminary and hopefully the Mohawk and other types are pending or at least under consideration.

With the Blues coming back to the show does this mean the show set up has to be changed like back in 07? :cry: I certanitlly hope not! Would we lose the reenactment from this change?

Last time the Blues were here, massive traffic jams were encountered getting off the airport after the show. Will that be handled any differently this year??
