One of my favorite annual events is the Warhawk Air Museum’s Warbird Roundup! This airshow brings together some amazing vintage aircraft with multiple P-40 Warhawks and P-51 Mustangs dominating the show. The P-51 is featured and as my favorite warbird, the show is a big favorite of mine!
Rather than a detailed description of the show, here’s a selection of some of my favorite photos from the show. The included YouTube video does a better job of showing the planes in action than anything I could write. I hope you’ll check it out!
