Memorial Day Salute to Veterans Corporation Airshow Preview: Snowbirds, Golden Knights and Warbirds

By Carmelo Turdo
The Memorial Day Salute to Veterans Airshow arrivals and practice sessions began in earnest today at Columbia, MO Regional Airport.  The headliners, the Canadian Forces Snowbirds Demonstration Team and the U.S. Army Golden Knights Gold Demonstration Team, gave performances to a group of veterans in the morning, and the Snowbirds also performed a practice airshow in the afternoon.  Other aircraft involved in the airshow, mainly warbirds from the World War II era, also flew their sponsors Friday afternoon.  The Aero Experience was in Columbia, MO to capture the action, and we highly recommend this Midwest Aviation event.  It is the second time in two weeks that the Canadian Forces Snowbirds will perform in Missouri, and this is a great time to see them.  Here are some scenes from today's aero experience:
