I'm taking my older son. I haven't been in years. Do you know the time schedule of the event?

The website doesn't list the times of the events but it does show the order in which the events will take place. I'm guessing that the earliest will be sometime around 9 a.m. but there's probably a phone number on the above website that you can call to get details. :wink:

I remember those B52s rumbling over Benton in the old says as they were landing at LRAFB...they literally shook the house. These are unbelievable aircraft when you see them up close and personal.....
