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

Unfortunately no new biggies, other than the Goodyear Blimp has been confirmed. Here is a schedule of speakers and presentations that tie in to the Salute to Veterans and warbirds theme:

Congrats, man. I myself just got married 3 weeks ago. It's an amazing thing, just enjoy it. It'll go by faster than you can believe. Best decision I ever made, besides joining WIX!~

I see Tim O'Connor is scheduled for presentations. His "latest" website info (from 2009) suggests he's bringing both P-26 projects. Anyone close enough to Mr. O'Connor to know if that's still the plan?

Just saw via EAA Update on Twitter, Berlin Airlift's "Spirit of Freedom" C-54 will be there! That makes for a DC-2, DC-3's (C-47), a DC-4 (C-54), and a DC-7. 8)

Will Ward? How about Dean Cutshalls' F-100F? They made it sound like it was just down to fuel costs....
