The
Aero Experience continues our coverage of EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2019,
sponsored by Elite Aviation, with a look at the Legacy Flights conducted during
the daily airshows. The Legacy Flight, similar to the USAF Heritage Flight,
pairs civilian-owned and operated warbirds with current military tactical
aircraft for appearances at airshows around the country. This week, we will include four different combinations of Legacy Flight formations, continuing with
this selection from Friday's airshow featuring the 1950’s era North American FJ-4
Fury flying in close formation with a U.S. Navy EF-18G Growler from VAQ-129
based at NAS Whidbey Island, WA.
