I seriously doubt the Blues would only show up for one day, and if they did, it wouldn't be a Thursday. The Horsemen have released their schedule, and Reno is not on it.

Edit: after doing some research, the Blues don't have Reno on their schedule at all. The Thunderbirds are scheduled for Thursday only, then Mountain Home the rest of that week / weekend. The Navy has something to do with the 100th Anniversary of Naval Aviation scheduled at Reno Fri-Sunday. No info on what exactly that involves.

MY MISTAKE, I meant Thunderbirds. Thanks RACE5. My wife informed me we got our box renewal a few days ago and list some acts however they escape me. I believe it said David Martin in a P-51 and someone in a Bonanza. (I Think that is right)

David Martin flys an Extra (or one of those other generic aerobatic things). I've heard of the Bonanza routine, but the guys name escapes me at the moment.

Dave Martin also fly's "Happy Jacks Go-Buggy" for Bruce Winters at times, and I would suspect that is the case. He also owns an "acrobatic Bonanza" but I don't think he does airshows with it.
Jim Peitz does the Bonanza routine as well as a Extra 300.

The Snowbirds were there last year, so they won't be there this year. The Patriots would be cool.

Re: 2011 Airshow acts

hmmm a cool act would be to see the RNZAF Red Checkers... these guys are amazing, regular line instructors during the day flying standard PAC CT4E Airtrainers designed and manufactured in NZ, they are powered by a 300hp Aerobatic Lycoming... watch the display and look for their signature manouver during the vid at about the 1:30 mark...

The Thunderbirds are scheduled for Thursday only. Yes, the Patriot Jet Team will headline the remaining three days. Sean D. Tucker is Not scheduled.

Eddie Andreini will be bringing his Mustang and doing an aerobatic routine with it. It was Bob Love's Mustang 44-73079

Re: 2011 Airshow acts

Race5 made a point earlier in saying that the Centennial Naval Anniversary stuff is scheduled for Reno. All the other airshow this was scheduled at normally said something about an AIR POWER flight. Maybe we are gonna see a Naval Gaggle at Reno??? THAT WOULD BE INTENSE
