Gearing Up: Air Show Performers Commit To Oshkosh 2021

More Performers To Be Added In Coming Weeks To Initial All-Star Roster

Man... we need to get our buns to Oshkosh... and some of the world's best airshow performers seem intent on making it worth our while.

EAA tells us that some of the world's best airshow peeps have made commitments to fly at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2021 as part of the afternoon and night air show lineups.

Those performers include aerobatic champions and longtime Oshkosh favorites for the 68th Experimental Aircraft Association fly-in convention, scheduled for July 26-August 1 at Wittman Regional Airport.

The event features nine air shows over seven days, including night airshows on July 28 and 31. 

"This is already an outstanding all-star air show lineup and we're just getting started," said Rick Larsen, EAA's vice president of communities and member programs, who coordinates AirVenture features and attractions.

"There is a particularly high energy among the air show community to get back to Oshkosh in 2021, whether it's returning performers, new air show acts, or particular aircraft connected with specific events and anniversaries."

Among the returning performers and aircraft already on the schedule include:

  • AeroShell Aerobatic Team (T-6)
  • Vicky Benzing (Stearman)
  • Jeff Boerboon (Yak-110 jet-assisted twin)
  • Wild Blue Rodeo (RV-8)
  • Bob Carlton (SubSonex JSX-2)
  • Kirby Chambliss, Aaron Fitzgerald and the Red Bull Air Force
  • Kevin Coleman (Extra 300 SHP)
  • Kyle Fowler (Rutan Long-EZ)
  • Kyle Franklin Comedy Act (Piper Super Cub)
  • Mike Goulian (Extra 330C)
  • Nathan Hammond (Super Chipmunk)
  • Rob Holland (MX-2)
  • Dell Coller (RAD Aerosports Jet Waco)
  • David Martin (Beechcraft Baron)
  • Jim Peitz (Beechcraft 33C Bonanza)
  • Red Line Air Shows (RV-8)
  • Gene Soucy (Grumman Showcat)
  • Bill Stein (Zivko Edge 540)
  • Skip Stewart (Pitts S2S Prometheus)
  • Patty Wagstaff (Extra 330LX)
  • Geico Skytypers (SNJ)
  • Matt Younkin (Twin Beech 18)

Along with these early confirmations, many more performers will be announced, including some only-in-Oshkosh performers and aircraft. Exact days for each performer and complete daily air show lineups will be announced as they are finalized.
