“Engine demonstration enthusiasts are as impressed by the restoration, maintenance and inconsistent wear on their cars as we are through our World War II aircraft. The Capital Wing has made the direct decision to upload an automatic turn to our Warbird exhibition at Culpe, in accordance with The Regional Airport on August 15. The airport has acres and acres of space, very productive for the demonstration of cars and airplanes’, according to Pete Ballard, nCO of the capital Wing. “We will have several categories of cars, adding old, classic and foreign cars. domestic cars. Some of the cars in demo can be much older or newer than the plane we flew, creating a choppy contrast.
There may be a minimum payment for vehicle owners to show up at the vehicle’s turn, however, an allocation is loose for the public, the compatibility capital wing will not prove a donation.
“The Capital Wing is also excited to announce that we are adding two more cities to our Warbird Showcase Tour so that more people in Virginia can experience our WWII warbirds up close,” Ballard said. “We’re adding a stop at the Hanover County Airport, just outside Richmond, on Saturday, Aug. 22 and also a stop in Charlottesville later in the fall.”
Warbird rides can be performed on Capital Wing Stinson’s L-five air traffic controller complex, the Boeing PT-17 Stearguy aircraft and the General Motors TBM Avenger, the largest single-engine bomber in World War II. Hiking starts at just $89.

Race tickets can also be sold on the site on design day so everyone has flight hours.
