Prairie Air Show Lands Harrier Demo!

Prairie Air Show is excited to announce

we have been selected to host a single aircraft

Harrier Demonstration for 2009!

For the 1st time in 25 years, the U.S. Marines AV-8B Harrier demonstration will beat up the sky over Peoria, IL. The AV-8B is a single-seat, light attack aircraft that provides offensive air support to the Marine Air-Ground Task Force (MAGTF). By virtue of its Vertical/Short Take-Off or Landing capability, the AV-8B can operate from a variety of amphibious ships, rapidly constructed expeditionary airfields, and damaged conventional airfields.
