Spirit of St. Louis Air Show & STEM Expo

[Banshee7]

Anyone going? I will be there Saturday, June 6.  LOTs of WW2 warbirds supposed to be there.  Here's what's been announce so far:

P-51D (2x)
P-51C
Me-262
Spitfire
C-47
P-38 
B-25
B-29
TBM
F6F
A6M
F4U

Of course, the Blue Angels are the headliners, but as soon as I saw the P-38 on the list I had to buy tickets.  If all the above show up, I will be able to knock several off the list of WW2 birds I've never seen in the air.

Whoah! That's one awesome line-up! Definitely want to see that 38. Gonna sell this to Household6. Hope to go

[Bolt]

Come on down!

Animl, you enabled them. Everytime you commented back it gave them a chance to fire back. If you didnt give them anything to work with, they would have eventually got bored an left.

Totally undeserved... Check the thinly veiled within this thread and get back to me.

the airshow was AWESOME by the way.  The 262 backed out due to mechanical issues, but it was great to finally see a P-38 in the sky.  I will try to upload some pics soon!

I was kinda shocked that a 262 would even be there and when you said it was out due to mechanical issues, I wasn't surprised at all. Imagine trying to keep a legit version of that running. At least the later versions had that regulator valve pump thing or whatever it was but still.

I wanna see photos. Did I miss something?
