Yankee Air Museum announced on April 9 that the third-annual Wings and Wheels event at Historic Willow Run Airport, scheduled for June 14, is cancelled.
The cancellation comes as Yankee Air Museum adheres to the current public health restrictions due to the global COVID-19 pandemic. The organization made the decision in order to help protect the health, safety and well-being of the spectators, partners, volunteers and event participants.
The event planning committee will now focus on the return of Wings and Wheels, Sunday, June 13, 2021.
Yankee Air Museum thanks its supporters, members and incredible volunteers for their overwhelming support of this event and many others, however, “Staying Home, Staying Safe” is our collective priority at this time.
The Wings and Wheels show is where people get close to an array of rare classic cars, selected by invitation only, and historic aircraft all on display together. There are outstanding opportunities to chat with the owners and capture photos.
