Air Show Overview

Every year the Legacy Flight Museum commemorates Father's Day with a fantastic array of planes in the sky. What else could a father ask for but a day with the family watching at the Legacy Flight Museum Air Show?

This year we will again be pleased to enjoy the fantastic flying ability of Kent Pietsch, one of the greatest sticks on the air show circuit. Kent pleased the audience the last two years with his great comedy routines, incredible dead stick landing, and by landing his 1942 Interstate Cadet aircraft, “Jelly Belly,” on a moving pickup truck. Kent will be back again this year with his amazing routines.

Also this year we will be pleased to welcome back Greg Poe, an incredible acrobatic pilot who performed here two years ago and will be back again to please the crowds this year.

All of the Legacy Flight museum aircraft are maintained airworthy, and most will fly during our air show. See the Library of Planes for pictures and more information on the following aircrafts:

Our chief pilot, John Bagley will fly several aircrafts, including the legendary P-51 Mustang, “Ole Yeller”; The Beechcraft Stagger Wing; and the Howard DGA. John’s son Shawn Bagley will be flying the 1947 U.S. Air Force Bird Dog; the T-6 Texan, and the P-63 King Cobra, a very rare bird – one of only three in the world today that still fly.

Todd Therp will be flying his Pitts Special, a light aerobatics plane that dominated world aerobatic competition in the 1960s and 1970s and, even today, remains a potent competition aircraft. Todd will also be flying his recently acquired Interavia E-3, an all aluminum Russian made purely-aerobatic aircraft manufactured in 1993.

Dave Beck will be flying his T-6 Texan. Danny Summers will be flying his two Skyraiders and his Avenger. Jeff Driscoll will fly his P-51 Mustang, “Section Eight.”

 

As an added feature this year we are focusing on P-51 Mustangs, with several expected to attend.  Check back later – more details to follow.

One more added attraction this year will be cars. Classic muscle cars! And they will be burning rubber on the runways between takeoffs and landings. Don't miss this spectacle!
This annual air show will be free to the public thanks to corporate sponsorships from several local businesses. Please patronize our sponsors, thank them for helping make this a free event for all to enjoy.
