The grounds of the Manassas Airport will once again be  home to one of the 
premier airshows and static displays in the Washington, DC and northern 
Virginia area during the 2002 Manassas Airshow, "Festival of Freedom." Much 
like past events of the last few years, airshow fans will enjoy numerous 
warbirds throughout the airshow display area.   The 2002 event will include a 
great deal more military and civilian aerobatic aircraft bringing the event 
back to the days of the mid-1990s and the DARE shows.  This event will be 
located on the east side of the airport near the terminal building and 
benefits the <A HREF="http://www.freedommuseum.org/";>Freedom Museum</A>. 
Headlining the 2002 event will be the US Army 
Golden Knights Parachute Team.   For years, the Golden Knights performed at 
the Manassas DARE show, and we are happy to have them back after many long 
years of absence.   Look for them to perform twice daily with exciting 
freefall parachuting demonstrations. We are also pleased to welcome the 
Flying Tigers of the 23rd Fighter Group from Pope AFB with their A-10A 
Thunderbolt II.   Each afternoon there will be an A-10 Demo from the United 
States Air Force.

The newly formed T-6A Texan II Demonstration Team from Randolph AFB, TX will 
also perform at this event marking their first performance ever in the 
Washington, DC area.

We also have the 2-ship All American Firebirds with their Extra 300s.   This 
exciting team of aerobatic performers will perform daily as well as a single 
ship will perform a solo routine.

Look for a great deal of modern military fighters, trainers, helicopters, and 
transports along with some of the area's most recognized warbirds, 
homebuilts, and experimental aircraft.   We also expect ground equipment from 
the military as well as a great display of vintage vehicle as well.
