Valiant Air Command — 36th Annual Airshow
The Valiant Air Command is pleased to welcome the United States Airforce Thunderbirds to our incredible lineup of performers for our 2013 warbird airshow!. They will be performing all three days.
The Valiant Air Command will hold the 36th annual 3-day Tico Warbird Airshow 22, 23 and 24 March 2013. This year the airshow will be dedicated to the famous B-17 Flying Fortress and the 70th anniversary of the "Memphis Belle" reaching 25 missions -- and for the first time ever, we will be privileged to have the USAF Thunderbirds performing!
It promises to be a very special airshow with The Thunderbirds and some 75-80 vintage aircraft on display and flying in the show; great warbirds such as the P-40 Warhawk, P-47 Thunderbolt, P-51 Mustang, F-8 Crusader, Grumman Wildcat, Avenger, F-4U Corsair, B-17, B-25s and many, many more.
Additionally, we will have other modern military jets flying and WWII reinactors fighting mock battles, as well as vendors, exhibits and displays. We will be offering rides in our vintage C-47 that actually flew in the Normandy invasion. There will be helicopter and bi-plane rides as well. Gates open at 8:30 AM and the airshow starts at 1PM, but there is plenty to do in the morning. There will be entertainment, an antique automobile showing, lots to see, warbirds to photograph, combat pilots to talk to, vendors to visit and mock battles to watch. The airshow is a combination country fair, 3-ring circus and 4th of July all rolled into one -- visit and become a part of history!
