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.

:D


Plus the 3 from Yankee

GOOD point! Although they are not among the announced aircraft to this point, the YAM's B-17, B-25 and C-47 are just about a given, which should should bring the total known warbird lineup to 24 aicraft at this point. The C-47 is usually not a flyer at most T.O.M. shows if I recall right, though.

Nice lineup so far, looking forward to it.
Hopefully can book some more jet acts, that was a kick seeing the F-100, was that last year or the year before ? That and a Phantom on the same ticket would be stupendous.

All,

I am told the Thunder Over Michigan web page will be updated in April. Right now the Thunder Team is busy putting the final touches on the Thunder Over Utah show.

Cheers,

Tom Walsh.

Dean "Cutter" Cutshall's F-100F was at the 2010 Thunder Over Michigan Air Show.

In sunny Florida for TICO -- it is "watered down" so much this year compared to 2011, that it really increases my anticipation of T.O.M. so I can enjoy a truly great warbird air show!!

A TERRIFIC looking list of aircraft so far, and I understand there will be more to come!

Should be an OUTSTANDING warbird show in just over 4 months now.

The new list this morning has 15 Mustangs on it including the newly added P-51D "Lou IV."

The last aircraft list on the web site listed 17 Mustangs. 3 Mustangs, including the P-51D "NEVER Miss" and the 2 Jack Roush Mustangs, P-51B "Old Crow" and the P-51D "Gentleman Jim," have been dropped from the new list.

Look forward to seeing some new warbird types and perhaps a few more Mustangs added to the list when the web site is updated in hopefully the not too distant future.

Still looking forward to a GREAT warbird show in August!

GRUMPLY....Give it the _ _ _ _ up, for God's sake. You're a broken record. I don't think I've experienced a more negative, spiteful person than you! :toimonster:

Mudge the fed up :vom:

ps...every so often, could you try to post something in intelligible English?

All,
To clarify, Mr. Roush is planning on having his 2 Mustangs (P-51D 'Gentlemen Jim' and P-51B 'Old Crow')on static display for Mustang Mania.
Mark Murphy had to cancel so his P-51D "NEVER Miss' and his SNJ-5C "Sweet Diane' will not be able to attend.
Regards,
Kevin
