May 23, 2019 - Three U.S. Air Force Air Combat Command demonstration teams will be performing at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2019.
The F-35 Lightning II, A-10 Thunderbolt II, and F-22 Raptor demo teams will perform abbreviated demonstrations as part of the daily air shows during AirVenture, as well as participate in the Air Force Heritage Flight program. In addition, watch for some of these aircraft to partake in the night air shows on Wednesday and Saturday of AirVenture.
"These flights are some of my favorite things we do because not only do we honor the heritage of those men and women that served in the Air Force, but we’re also reassuring previous generations by demonstrating that our modern air power will ensure the USAF maintains its long-established air dominance well into the future," said Dennis Dunbar, EAA director of flight operations. "What other demonstration in the air show industry can be both reminiscent of our history, while simultaneously inspiring us all for what the future of air power holds?"
