Good start to the lineup! It will be nice to be able to see an F-86 and actually be able to look at it. Last time I saw the Sabre, it didn't even stage from the airport the show was being held at despite having done so the previous day...

TERRIFIC addition to the lineup, Michael! Don't think I have ever seen a C-46 at Thunder in any of the years I have been there. Now if we can get the BAHF's C-54 in the confirmed column for Thunder we will be our way to an an outstanding collection of WWII U.S. Army Air Forces transports at the show in August.

You and me both. It's always nice to see new restorations and first-time performers at Thunder. Great addition!

Ok this makes up for the T-6 theme right here. The C-46 would be enough to get me to fly up from Florida to see this year's show. It canceled at Titusville 2 years straight. The last time I seen a C-46 fly was probably back in the 1990s and never got a picture of it. Hopefully it will fly in the show, get some C-47s to fly also and maybe get a parachute drop for a nice D Day anniversary tribute

Hopefully our C-47 will be flying by then and will be able to attend.

Is the TBM the one now based out of Port Clinton?
