Planning for the 2025 TBM Avenger Reunion and Salute to Veterans has begun! The dates for the 10th Anniversary edition will be May 16th & 17th at Illinois Valley Regional Airport (KVYS) in Peru, Illinois The United States Air Force F-16 Fighting Falcon VIPER Demo Team is coming!! They'll tear up the skies over the Illinois Valley on Friday & Saturday! We are excited to announce the return of the TITAN Aerobatic Team (formerly AeroShell Aerobatic Team). They'll perform their 4-ship aerobatic routine in their T-6/SNJ Texans. They will be performing their Night Airshow on Friday Night and also their Day Show on Saturday Friday Night will feature the "TBM Glow", our now famous and copied nighttime TBM Avenger Engine Run-Up. Immediately after the TBM Glow, we'll have FIREWORKS to end the evening. As usual, we'll have many other great warbirds from World War II and various other eras attending as well as our main contingent of TBM Avengers. Saturday will be our main Salute to Veterans including our parade and funeral flag procession. We encourage ALL veterans, past and present, to join our parade and funeral flag procession. We also encourage all veteran families to bring their loved one's funeral flag for our "Walk of Honor" procession and to have these flags flown in our TBM Missing Man Formation. There are no limits to how many times you bring your flag so even if you have in the past, you can be a part of this experience again this year. We'll have more details on this and additional information on the show coming soon. This website will continue to be updated with additional pages as information is announced.
