Thunder Over Michigan July 2011

Posted by car 2011 at 12:22 PM

For plane lovers the season of the air show is fast approaching. Some people keep close - like staying in town for  Toronto's Canadian International Air show in September, or taking the time to travel to the Thunder Over Michigan Air Show. The planes will take to the skies above the Willow Run Airport on July 23rd & 24th, 2011.
The Ypsilanti, Michigan show is exciting because of the mix of aircraft that fly during the weekend and that are parked and available for up close review, in some cases you can even get into the planes for a tour. 
You can watch the planes taxi down the runway, put the petal to the metal and soar into the sky and watch the planes do a high speed bank down on the deck to provide some great photo opportunities. 
In 2010 they had a tremendous amount of B17 bombers and shiny Mustangs fighter planes (you can see more of last years event on my earlier post here). Come back here for information on the upcoming 2011 show.
