So far announced over a several month period, the lineup includes 15 P-51 Mustangs, 2 P-47 Thunderbolts, 1 P-38 Lightning, 1 B-29 Superfortress, 1 F-86 Sabre and 1 BT-13.

21 vintage warbirds should be enough to post a tentative aircraft list on the show web site. PLEASE update the Thunder Over Michigan web site!

5 months to an OUTSTANDING Warbird air show! Can't wait.
