The iconic airplanes of past wars will take to the skies of Eastern Wisconsin next month.
The annual Warbirds & Classics over the Midwest remote control air show is scheduled for August 14th through the 17th in Fond du Lac.
More than 125 pilots are registered, and bring with them over 350 giant scale models of World War I to modern day warbirds, or models of classic aircraft built before 1960.
Spectators will view precise formation flying, flight speeds of up to 200 miles per hour, and simulations of bomb drops as the pilots perform to period music.
That Sunday’s “Robert Wellnitz Memorial Airshow” features many types of remote-control aircraft, including aerobatic planes in all shapes and sizes.
