ROCKFORD (WREX) - People looking toward the skies Wednesday afternoon may have gotten a view of one of AirFest 2012's shining stars.
Thunderbird #8 arrived at the Chicago Rockford International Airport around 2:00 p.m., and the airport is expecting many more planes over the next two days as it prepares for the year festival. Some expected arrivals include a C-40 Presidential Jet, a B-52 Stratofortress, an F-18 Super Hornet, and KC-135 Stratotanker.
AirFest 2012 begins Saturday, June 2, and ends Sunday, June 3. For more information on the festival, including a schedule of events, visit www.flyrfd.com, and be sure to tune in Friday to see 13 WREX's own Rebecca Klopf fly with the Thunderbirds!
