Planes of Fame Airshow dates have NOT been set as yet due to a possible conflict with the March ARB show. All depends on the Thunderbirds availability. Planes of Fame possibly the 5th and 6th of May. Will keep you posted.

Why is the F-4 heritage flight in bold?       

[SBGrad]

Why is the F-4 heritage flight in bold?       

..becasue the F-4 is awesome.   ...or maybe because ACC hasn't verified the flight schedule for May yet.

Why is the F-4 heritage flight in bold?

I had a fun time at the airshow. The weather was perfect and the flying was awesome. My favorite performance were the Horsemen aerobatic team. I'm not getting burgers at Chino anymore since the line was too long during intermission.
