Paul - that sounds like a heck of a good warbird lineup. Glad to see you and your T-33 will be there. Wish I could be there. Are you sure about the F-100 Super Sabre flyby? Is it Dean Cutshall's F-100F or another Super Sabre?

Wed Aug 20, 2008 1:16 pm

how sure are we on the F-100F? Is it going to be flying both days? Im only going sunday so i hope its both days.

Got it straight from the Air Boss that the F-100 Super Sabre is flying in the show. Can't confirm if it's both days or not. It is the local Super Sabre (based in Terre Haute?).

No Paul, he is based in Ft. Wayne, i wish it was Terre Haute:), i live 20 min from there. Its a gorgerous sabre.

I just walked out in the hangar and asked Dean's crew chief what the schedule was. He said as far as he knew it was Saturday only.

That sounds like a pretty reliable confirmation. Is it possible to get a rough timeline as to what time of day on Saturday we could expect Dean's flybys?

Thanks Jack! When your schedule allows, we gotta get you over to these parts for some warbird play time, beer swilling etc. Let me know how it's looking for Oshkosh '09.

On the F-100, Air Boss said it was gonna open the show Saturday and in his words "beat up the pattern with an F-16." Airspace shuts down Saturday at 11:00 local so you could expect the F-100 to fly soon after that.

A little after 2:00 local with the fighters. I forgot to mention there will also be a Hurricane and Spitfire flying with me, the P-47, P-51, Sea Fury, Yak 9 just after the Wildcat does his aerobatic routine.
