The 4th annual air show was held at the General William J Fox Airfield in Lancaster, CA. The show is also know as the Los Angeles County Air Show. For 2017 it featured the USAF Thunderbirds, U.S. Navy F/A-18E/F VFA-122 TAC Demo Team and various other aerobatic performers. One of the aerial performers courtesy of the U.S. Air Force was the Heritage Flight. Spectators were able to witness a rare formation flight of past and present Air Force aircraft which featured 2 A-10 Thunderbolt II's and a P-38 Lightning. This marked the first time in nearly 5 years that the A-10 participated in the Heritage Flight Program after budget cuts came into effect. Piloting the A-10s were Maj. Dan "Cosmo" Levy and Capt. Chad "Possum" Rudolph, and Steve Hinton in the P-38. See our images in .
