Thunder Over Michigan
Rocky Mountain Wing’s National Historic Registered Airplane, WWII Torpedo Bomber “309”, will be flying and providing rides at Thunder Over Michigan.
“309”, the Rocky Mountain Wing Commemorative Air Force’s (RMWCAF) Grumman Avenger TBM-3E WWII Torpedo Bomber, which is one of the very few still flying Nationally Registered Historic Aircraft, will be in Ypsilanti at the 2025 Thunder Over Michigan Air Show June 20 – 23. This is your opportunity not only to see, touch, and hear this WWII legend, but also to take a ride in this “officially” historic aircraft. Not many have that opportunity.
You may want to plan ahead and reserve a ride opportunity early. That can be done by visiting the RMW’s website at https://www.rmwcaf.org/buy-a-ride.html.
Or, you can check with the TBM “309” ground crew during the show to see what ride times are available.
We’re flying our special aircraft from western Colorado to Ypsilanti just to be part of this great Air Show.
See you there!
