Tour - USA II

EAA AirVenture – Oshkosh – Thunder over Michigan – USAF Museum – July 2024

Information

The annual EAA AirVenture at Oshkosh Wittman Regional Airport (WI) is the gathering for all aviation enthusiasts. Thousands of aircraft visit this show with hundreds of ‘Warbirds’ being present as well as dozens of active military aircraft. It’s not called the biggest air show in the world for nothing! We plan to visit the show from Sunday until Saturday, so you will not miss a thing. There are different themes every day and these are packed with full on aviation excitement, you can enjoy yourself from early morning until late in the evening.

In addition to the EAA we also intend to visit the Thunder over Michigan airshow at Willow Run, near Detroit AND a two day visit to the largest aircraft museum in the world, the National Museum of the USAF near Wright Patterson AFB in Ohio.

Travel dates are from 17 to 29 July 2024. If this is to long, you can skip the first couple of days and join us on the 21st for the remainder of the tour. Reach out to us for more info on this option.
