Various military and historical aircraft will take to the skies during the two-day event, and leading the way will be Viper West, Air Combat Command's elite F-16 demonstration team.
For a touch of nostalgia, the show will feature Tora, Tora, Tora, an aerial act depicting the attack on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, and a number of heritage and "dog-fighting" demonstrations to include the P-51 Mustang.
Aircraft won't be the only things taking to the skies June 3 and 4. Watch as parachutists jump skillfully toward the earth during the high-flying, free-falling demonstration of the United States Army Parachute Team, The Golden Knights. With over 450 championship titles to their credit, The Golden Knights are the most-winning parachute team in the world.
In addition to an aerial show, the event will feature numerous display aircraft including the F-117A Stealth Fighter, a KC-135 Stratotanker, a UH-1N helicopter, a Navy P-3 Orion, a Civil Air Patrol C-182 and much more.
Also, experience the thrill of watching Scott's own military working dogs up close and in action. See the dogs and their handlers work as one to catch would-be thieves and perpetrators.
The Scott Air Force Base Precision Drill Team will also be out, moving and working in unison as they perform meticulous rifle toss demonstrations.
Scott Air Force Base is located about 20 miles east of St. Louis near Belleville, Ill. The Shiloh Gate entrance is 1 1/2 miles southeast of Interstate 64 (exit 19A) at Route 158.
