The U.S. Air Force will put the past and future of air power together at the 2015 Ocean City Air Show in the Air Force Heritage Flight on June 13 – 14, 2015.
The Heritage Flight program presents the evolution of U.S. Air Force air power by flying today’s state-of-the-art fighter aircraft in close formation with vintage warbird fighter aircraft. The Heritage Flight at the Ocean City Air Show will feature America’s newest superfighter, the F-22 Raptor in formation with a vintage World War II era P-51 Mustang.
“There could not be a better way for the OC Air Show to celebrate the 70th Anniversary of VE Day and the end of World War II in Europe than to have a P-51 Mustang join the F-22 Raptor in the Heritage Flight,” said Bryan Lilley, President of the OC Air Show. “The P-51 was the F-22 Raptor of it’s day and was key in the allies achieving air superiority in the skies over Europe.”
The 2015 OC Air Show will be headlined by the U.S. Navy Blue Angels plus feature the European-based Breitling Jet Team and a full capabilities demonstration of the U.S. Air Force F-22 Raptor.
