There was a Thunderbolt, a P47D to be exact:
Later, we got the lightning and the rain to accompany it.
There was a gorgeous P-51C done up in Tuskegee Airmen colors.
An FM-2 Wildcat, unfortunately still in its protective wrappings and considering the storm that was to hit, it was a wise idea, but not great for nice photography.
For those with more modern taste, there was a sharp looking F16 out of Ohio.
It's not a Airshow unless Bert makes an appearance. Bert who? Brrrrt the A-10, of course.
Of course, you can't kick ass without tanker gas, and the Michigan Air National Guard had a tanker on display:
It was so big and where it was located I couldn't get a decent shot with the whole plane in it.
Then the squall line reached us and the ran began to fall, so we beat a hasty retreat to the photo tent and waited it out.
Finally at 13:00 the rain ceased and the clouds rose enough that the airshow could begin.
