— Several military aircraft demo teams and a unique private jet group have been added to the air show lineup for EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2024 at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. The 71st edition of the Experimental Aircraft Association’s fly-in convention will be held July 22-28.
EAA AirVenture 2024 has received commitments from the F-22 demo team, the F-16 Viper demo team, and the F-35B demo from the U.S. Marine Corps. In addition, the Polaris Ghost Squadron has confirmed its appearance at Oshkosh following popular aerial demonstrations in 2022 and 2023.
“The entire spectrum of aviation comes to Oshkosh and jet demonstrations are always among the popular displays throughout the week,” said Rick Larsen, EAA’s vice president of communities and member programs, who coordinates AirVenture features and attractions. “These commitments are in addition to the already-announced participation of the Canadian Forces Snowbirds, which will make 2024 an unforgettable year on the Oshkosh flight line. And there’s still more to come.”
The F-16 Viper team and the F-35B are scheduled to fly at Oshkosh at various times throughout the week, while the F-22 team will be present July 22-25 and the Polaris Ghost Squadron on July 22-24. Along with the aerial demonstrations, several of the aircraft will be on display at AirVenture’s showcase Boeing Plaza.
EAA AirVenture features nine air shows over seven days, including night air shows on July 24 and 27. The shows feature performances by aerobatic champions, military units, innovative technology, and unique aircraft from the entire history of flight. More details on air show lineups will be announced as they are finalized.
