Thinking about that or the Natchez balloon fest. Balloon fest is practically free

Been out here all week prepping for it. So far the practices have been great, and the twilight show was incredible tonight.

Perfect weather tomorrow. Super Hornet will be there along with a Mig, Aeroshell, and many other great performers. See y’all there boys

Would they fly over BR at all? Either yesterday or the day before it sounded like a fighter jet flew over highland pretty low

The hornets flew in from that direction yesterday.

The old school T-6s I believe. Seen them a few times, good show.
Also, any mig demo is worth driving an hour or two for. I parked a static display(C-130) at the Bucharest airshow in 2016. The Romanians had a tent set up next to the flight line with free beer. They invited over just before the mig 21 night demo. That shite was metal. Best aerial demo I’ve ever seen. Airshows are amazing with no safety precautions.

I love old MiGs and the whine and whistle of the P-51D’s Merlin. And those T-6’s radial engines. Can’t beat it. Almost as good as jet noise.

Would love to get my hands on the original, my only experience is with the T-6II, which was a blast. Love my time in that thing.
ETA: the whine of a supercharged Merlin is superior to jet noise any day of the week.

Sure. I went to the last one and had a good time. Was easier getting out afterwards then any other air show I’ve been to.
