I love an air show! This year, we were lucky to see the Thunderbirds perform at “Airpower Over the Midwest” at Scott Air Force Base. While the Thunderbirds were the headline act, there were also many other things to see while we waited!
As were coming in, there was a parachute team jumping. The children were fascinated by their red smoke!
There are always many different kinds of aircraft. Turkey really liked this Marines plane with foldable wings:
I liked the Spirit of Freedom, because I’m fascinated by the Berlin Air Lift:
The children got to tour a Delta jet, and even try out the seats (and they got their “wings!”):
Even Chickadee got to join in the fun!
And, of course, the stars themselves: The Thunderbirds!
