The Aviation Heritage Center of Sheboygan County will be the temporary home to around 21 T-28 aircraft as their pilots prepare for their annual pilgrimage to EAA’s AirVenture in Oshkosh.
 
The group will hold its educational and flight-training sessions at Sheboygan County Memorial Airport from Thursday, July 22nd to Monday July 26th.
 
The T-28 Trojan aircraft were flown by the U.S. armed forces from the 1950s until the 1980s as an advanced trainer and were used extensively during the Vietnam War, as well as the Secret War in Laos as a close air support aircraft.

During the event, the general public will be allowed to watch from our observation deck or from inside the hangar area and also along the fence-line. For more information, call (920) 467-2043.
