I assume Michael realizes this is probably the statement that a ton of people will be making. I also assume there are shows across the country where the XP would be the make or break for their attendance. We will know soon!!

I can appreciate the enthusiasm for the twin mustang, but your average airshow attendee doesn't understand the significance of this airframe. It's a big deal to a small number of us enthusiasts, but means nothing to the bulk revenue (aka people) coming through the gate. Michael and the TOM team are probably more worried about getting good weather.

Maybe get a reality check before bashing Thunder for only getting an F-16 and 11 Corsairs
