I'd have to disagree and say it was a fantastic show. "Only" having
20 Mustangs in formation instead of 51 was a bit of a disappointment
but they explained on the PA that was due to bad weather on Thursday
delaying many arrivals and impacting practice time for getting the big
formation together, so I completely understand why they decided not to
do it. It was amazing to see so many of them in one place and I was
very happy with the selection of other planes which included B-17,
B-25, P-38, P-40, P-47, P-63 and a Lanc - at least one of each type
flew in the show. The F-22 put on quite a show, I'd never seen one of
those before. Of course I've never been to OSH but I think you'd have
to be very jaded indeed not to have enjoyed that show.
