If you haven't heard "Wings Over Bryant," an incredible air show in Arkansas near Little Rock is slated for June 24-25. Originally, it was going to be a one day show but because of its popularity a second show has been added. "The Twilight Show" on Friday, June 24.

The all-new aerial acrobatic air show is the only one scheduled in Arkansas this year and will be at the Saline County Regional Airport in Bryant. I've been to several airshows in my lifetime but I have never seen a twilight air show which is fast becoming a fan favorite. All the events begin around dusk and the experience is so much different than a day show because of the lights and theatrics it takes to pull off one of these shows.
