Twice each year, when the sun goes down over Oshkosh, Wisconsin, performers light up the sky. The night show has become a much-loved tradition during EAA AirVenture, a “skylight” of the week, as the Experimental Aircraft Association proudly proclaims on its website.
AOPA Technical Editor Mike Collins found a spot for his camera among the crowd at airshow center as Julie Clark, the Aeroshell Aerobatic Team, Wild Blue, a glider fitted with rockets, and an afterburning school bus lit up the darkness.
The July 22 event was the first of two night shows planned; if you missed it, there’s another edition in store July 25.
