Dobbins Air Show 2010 – Wings Over Atlanta 2010 Air Show

Officials here recently announced performers for the 2010 Wings Over Atlanta Air Show scheduled for Oct. 16-17, 2010. The main acts will be the U.S. Navy Blue Angels and Canadian Snowbirds.

“This show will be the most exciting ever because we’ve never had two jet teams to perform,” said Lt. Col. Geoffrey Wooten, 2010 Wings Over Atlanta Air Show director.

The show will also serve as a special homecoming for two members of the Blue Angels in their final year with the team. The No. 1 pilot and flight commander, Cmdr. Greg McWherter, and the Lead Solo, Lt. Cmdr. Frank Weisser, are both from the Metro Atlanta area.

The air show will feature several other civilian aerobatic acts, static displays and interactive demos free of charge to the public.

The Blue Angels is the U.S. Navy’s premier flight demonstration squadron and the oldest flying aerobatic team. Since 1946, they have performed for more than 427 million fans worldwide. www.blueangels.navy.mil.
