From various sources it looks like in addition to what has been announced in this thread and on the web site, the Military Aviation Museum's Fw-190, Vintage Wings of Canada's Corsair and Hawk One Sabre and the CF-18 demo will be at Hamilton June 15-16!
Can't wait to hear what else is in store for that weekend.
Jim, sorry but as of right now, Hawk One is not scheduled for Hamilton this year. However, we did just confirm Paul Keppeler's T-33 for static only!

SORRY to hear that Hawk One is NOT scheduled at this time for Hamilton. It IS showing on the calendar for Hawk One on the VWoC web site as being at Hamilton the weekend of June 15-16.
Please try to get it there IF possible!
A static T-33 is nice, but a flying one is much better. If you can get the JAM's "Mako" T-33 or another one on the flying schedule for the show that would be terrific.
Looking forward to the show!

NICE update on the show's web page today! But was surprised to see that the MAM's announced Fw-190 was not on the lineup.
Look forward to seeing it and other warbirds added to the flying lineup as we move toward March. Less than 4 months to the show now!

Jim,
Thanks for the reminder. I knew I forgot something when I was updating the website. The FW190 is now there and confirmed. Here is the latest list of confirmed aircraft for the 2013 Hamilton Airshow on Father's Day weekend: http://www.hamiltonairshow.com/performi ... craft.aspx

Here are the latest updates for the 2013 Hamilton Airshow on June 15th & 16th:
Originally we had announced that the Mosquito would be flying in the Saturday show only and leaving Hamilton at 10 am Sunday morning. This schedule has now changed.....for the good. The Mosquito is now able to stay in Hamilton for the Sunday and participate in both days of the show. So whatever day, June 15 or 16, you should be able to see it fly along with the Lancaster, two Spitfires and two Hurricanes. Additionally, the Mosquito will be arriving early to star in our Mosquito Memories event on June 13th. See poster below.
The following have been added to the flying show:
Canadian Harvard Aerobatic Team

Cam Harrod and his Fleet Finch

The Great War Flying Museum SE5a and Dr. I

Red Bull Racer Pete McLeod

Additions to the static display area:
Alf Beam's T-28 Trojan
Photo: Kool Shots
Peter Ramm's Lockheed 12
Other updates: The photo passes are now 80% sold out for Saturday. Mikey McBryan from Buffalo Airways/Ice Pilots NWT is also returning!
We are still confirming additional acts and static aircraft and will let you know once they are confirmed.

Really looking forward to the show! Great collection of flying warbirds will be there. And very happy to see today that the Mosquito will now be flying in the air show both Saturday AND Sunday!
The only thing that would make this show better would be some classic vintage jets in the flying lineup (T-33, Sabre, Vampire......something along those lines).

Does his mean the Mosquito will not be at the Dulles "Be A Pilot" day?

I suppose that all depends on whether the Kiwis remembered to install the "be in two countries at the same time" mod on it.

VWoC is sending their Lysander, assuming they get the brakes in order.

This show is getting Better and Better! Over on Facebook the CWHM has announced that Vintage Wings of Canada is bringing the Hawk One Sabre and their P-40 to the show to fly!
Don't see how it can get much better than this - can't wait!

Performers List updated on the web site today and I don't think this is an April Fool's Day joke!

You will have a hard time finding a better flying warbird lineup than this anywhere this year.

They had better hurry if they plan on having the CAF B-24 there. From the last pictures I saw of it in the hangar in Dallas, its a long way from flying.

There are a number of warbirds on the show list that are higher up for me than the B-24, but I hope it's there. If not, it would be the 2nd year in a row that a planned B-24 didn't make it.
In any case, it should be an outstanding show.
