26th Annual Warbirds over Delaware
 

Warbirds Over Delaware is just weeks away. Now in its 26th year, Warbirds Over Delaware is the region's premier radio controlled model air show. Each year, as many as 200 of the country's best R/C pilots descend on Lums Pond State Park's R/C Flying Field for four days of fun and flying, bringing with them over 300 of the largest and most detailed radio controlled military aircraft in the country. Attracting upwards of 5,000 spectators annually, Warbirds Over Delaware features giant-scale flying models of military aircraft from all periods of military aviation history.

This year's event runs from Wednesday, July 12th through Saturday, July 15th. On Friday and Saturday, there will be a lunchtime airshow featuring the World War I and World War II Gaggles, a performance of large scale military jet aircraft, and much more! It’s run by the Delaware R/C Club.

The $45 Sign-up fee includes the Park Entrance Fee and the Saturday Night Barbecue.

Spectator admission is free, but state parking fees apply. For a small fee, spectators can access the pit area. There, they can get right up to the aircraft, talk to the pilots, and get an unbeatable view of the planes in flight!

Down here in Cape Coral's Gathering of the Giants, we sure missed Mac Hodges and his B29 for our half time show, but truly understand. Just not the same show.
