Kudos to the Army Aviation Heritage Foundation for posting their 2017 schedule and committing to OSH.
Perhaps the immense shame that now burns within will move others to update their calendars also.
FYI: Sheboygan event is reporting attendance by the Trojan Horsemen, as well as a B-25 and Skyraider (but doesn't specify which ones).
Most of the info on the Sheboygan show is the same as it was last year. From what I understand, it's very similar in scope every year. The Skyraider "Naked Fanny" has been a participant the last two years, as has B-25 "Panchito." I would expect the usual gaggle of T-28s and T-34s as well. I might be checking that one out this year.
Anyone know if Heavy Bombers Weekend in Janesville/Madison is on for next year? I went the last two years and really enjoyed it. A nice preview of some of the Oshkosh heavies without the crowds and with easy access to start-ups, taxying views, etc. Seems that the website has been taken down and the Facebook page is also no longer active. I'm hoping they are just rebranding or in the process of launching new pages. I'd hate to see that event go by the wayside as it was very good, but they may not have drawn the crowds necessary to sustain it.
