TBM Avengers Salute To Veterans 2025

Simply Amazing!

Here are some standout moments from the 2025 TBM Avenger Reunion and Salute to Veterans Airshow in Peru, Illinois.

Despite high winds forcing a few aircraft to stay grounded and cutting back on some scheduled performances, the event still delivered a powerful tribute and a thrilling show.

Check out the yellow T-6 at the 2:31 mark—its engine spits out a burst of flame and briefly cuts out. A dramatic moment that added to the edge-of-your-seat atmosphere!

Yes, the wind made it a tough day for flying, but the dedication, patriotism, and raw power on display made it a memorable event. For those who love warbirds and honor the legacy of our veterans, this is what dreams are made of.
