2011 Lake in The Sky Air Show
Submitted by Editor on Fri, 08/19/2011 - 3:01pm
The 22nd annual Lake in the Sky Air Show, considered the biggest and best air show in the high Sierra is on Saturday, Aug. 27 beginning at 8 a.m. and runs throughout the day.
You won’t want to miss the spectacular opening ceremonies Warbird ‘fly bys!’ And then get up close to several vintage Warbirds and military static display aircraft, including the Air Forces C-17 Globemaster, and the #1 rated fighter plane of WWII - the legendary P-51 Mustang. Plus many more Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard and Marine Corp aircraft on display.
Homebuilt, experimental, Highway Patrol, CALSTAR, CAP and other aircraft are also invited to participate. And our ever-popular Flying 5K Run is back. And there will be a hearty pancake breakfast offered by the Kiwanis Club. An NAS Fallon (Top Gun!) Search & Rescue (SAR) aircraft is once again expected to perform a demonstrated rescue mission. You’ll see displays of equipment used by fire emergency response and search and rescue teams. NASA will have educational display.
