The 2014 edition of Kokomo Wings & Wheels will take place Saturday, July 26 at the Kokomo Municipal Airport in Kokomo, IN. This show keeps getting better and better each year. Hope I can make it down there!

Excellent! I had just checked a couple weeks ago and the site hadn't been updated for this year yet, glad to see the show return again.

I might head down for this one. Went in 2012 and had a good time.

According to their Facebook page, there more "big name acts" in the works since it's the weekend before AirVenture. Happy to see this show is growing.

Did anybody else go? I was disappointed with the warbird turnout this year and I hope it was just because of the weather forecast and low ceiling. There were quite a few scheduled that didn't make it. I was glad to see the show has grown to the point of big name acts and starting to have more vendors, but disappointed that the jets made one pass each and the T-6's only made a couple. I wondered if that was because they were trying to speed up the show because of weather or if that's all the fuel they gave. My brother and I took off after the T-6's landed and headed up to Grissom for a couple hours.

I was planning to go, but got a last minute offer to go to the Collings Foundation in Massachusetts for "Race of the Century".
