Did a little research to find the N#'s. Not sure why those aren't in the Air & Space Mag descriptions.

My list is at 17 planes, I've heard that Historic Flight Foundation could be bringing all 3 listed, could only be 2 though.

Is the FJ-4B Fury going to be part of the Invitational? That airplane is way cool!

Fury will be the jet in the Legacy Flight, even better!

Re: National Aviation Heritage Invitational 2019

I updated the first post a little. LiveAirshowTV released this preview with the 10 new (out of 25 total) attendees for this year. 3 of them were not yet listed on Air & Space Magazine, so I added them. I thought the A-26 was a new attendee.... but...?

We are currently at 19 out of 24/25 total, with the remaining 6 being previous contestants stay tuned.

Re: National Aviation Heritage Invitational 2019

Ok, I think I have the full list of contestants after Air & Space leaked the voting today, lol.

The list is at 24, I've heard 25 or so, and that's still subject to change.

But it is in the first post and as follows:

Make note that A-26 'Sweet Eloise' dropped and Cactus Air Force's N126HK was added. So instead of 2 Invader's it is back to 1.
