Exciting Michael! So with Nine O Nine coming to the show does that mean we'll see its inseparable companion with it? :wink:

Also, any thought to the pyro suggestion? Is this idea too costly or may not be allowed by the airport?

It's only November with over 9 months to the show so that's OUTSTANDING at this point - Michael!

Looking forward to TOM 2010 and seeing the expanding lineup as we move into next year.

Excellent, been dying to see John Mohr perform, and although the wifey just got laid off and won't have vacation then, I may have to come without her.

As our plans develop for the 2010 Thunder Over Michigan Air Show and “The Gathering of Fortresses and Legends” we are excited to report that 8th Air Force Historical Society is planning multiple reunions in Ypsilanti, Michigan to coincide with the Thunder Over Michigan Air Show.
In speaking with representatives from the 8th Air Force Historical Society, expects to have upwards of 350 attendees with 100+ of them being 8th Air Force WWII veterans.
Thunder Over Michigan will be providing an area for the registered 8th Air Force WWII veterans to sign autographs, sell books, pictures, etc. and meet and greet with the public.
We hope that this will afford air show attendees a very rare and unique opportunity to interact with a significant number of these ‘American Heroes’.
More to come….
Thanks
Kevin
