Warbirds of America Commemorates Historic Military Aircraft at AirVenture 2025
The EAA Warbirds of America area will continue to be a focal point on the EAA AirVenture Oshkosh grounds in 2025 with an exciting lineup of aircraft and attractions for all ages to enjoy. More than 300 warbirds are expected to appear this year with many being from the World War II, Korean War, and Vietnam War eras.
The innovation and technology of the Korean War will be highlighted this year with several aircraft on display showcasing the transition from piston-powered aircraft to fighter jets. This year also marks the 85th anniversary of the Corsair, the 80th anniversary of the A-1 Skyraider, and the 75th anniversary of the MiG-17.
On Tuesday, July 22, at 2 p.m., EAA Warbirds of America will hold a press conference to announce the dedication of the C.E. “Bud” Anderson Memorial Garden and Warbirds Museum. The afternoon air show on Wednesday, July 23, will pay tribute to the 80th anniversary of World War II with a parade and run-up featuring several aircraft from the era.
Warbirds in Review will return with a packed schedule featuring presentations on iconic aircraft such as the P-51, Me 262 replica, and P-38. The annual presentation series has become one of the premier ways during AirVenture to learn about era-defining aircraft up close.
The Warbirds Youth Education Center will offer kids an opportunity to experience flight in iconic warbirds through five Redbird full-motion flight simulators. The Warbirds Youth Education Center is free to enter and open daily from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. during AirVenture.
