THUNDER OVER MICHIGAN 2018

[Alex Pas]

Thinking of going both days this year. Was wondering if I get to Thunder right around when the gates open on Saturday, will I be able to catch a few arrivals?

Thanks,

[WIXerGreg]

Most or all of the arrivals will be throughout the day Friday.

[Xray]

Most arrivals FRI, some THUR, TB practice on both days.

[Alex Pas]

Yeah I know bout Friday arrivals. Just curious as I most likely won't be able to catch any of the arrivals on Friday.

Thanks!

[Xray]

Thur is worth a go if able, if nothing else for the Thunderbird practice.

Just bought a scanner and was wondering if they are allowed to bring into Thunder's airshow grounds? Anybody know?

Thanks!

I've brought a scanner into the airshow for several years and never had any problems.

Is there a good location to watch the arrivals on Friday? I can’t stay for the show on Saturday but would love to see everything fly in Friday.

[WIXerGreg]

Ecorse should be open on Friday except for during Thunderbird practice? I should be getting into town early enough to catch some action Friday night too.
