A scroll through The Weekender's SocialFlight calendar has turned up big airshows in the heartland to GA-friendly fly-ins back East that offer a bit of everything. The skies above Olympia, Washington, will come alive this weekend when the Olympic Air Show flies into town. The show is hosted by the Olympic Flight Museum and takes place at the Olympia Regional Airport. The show will include aerobatic performers and military aircraft from the museum's collection, food and merchandise vendors, and a variety of youth activities. Mankato, Minnesota, will host the Air Force Thunderbirds' only appearance in the state this year during the Minnesota Air Spectacular Saturday and Sunday. Other performers appearing are the U.S. Army Golden Knights Parachute Team, NAVYTACDEMO (F-18 Super Hornet), Team Oracle, Dave Dacy/Tony Kazian Wingwalking, John Klatt-Jack Links Screamin' Sasquatch Jet Waco, and Kent Pietsch/Jelly Belly Airshow. A variety of aircraft will be on static display including the B25 Miss Mitchell, a C-130 Hercules and P-40E Warhawk.
