We’re proud to celebrate the 11th Annual TBM Reunion and Salute to Veterans Airshow, happening May 15–16 in Peru, Illinois! What began as a heartfelt tribute to one of WWII’s most legendary aircraft—the TBM Avenger—has soared into one of the Top 10 Airshows in the Midwest, drawing aviation enthusiasts, veterans, and families from across the nation.
This year promises unforgettable moments. The Titan Aerobatic Team returns to dazzle the skies with their breathtaking precision flying—including their iconic Friday Night Show. Don’t miss it—this will be their final season before retirement, making every performance even more meaningful.
And that’s just the beginning.
Climb aboard for plane rides, explore historic aircraft up close, enjoy great food and drinks, and cap off Friday night with a spectacular fireworks display that lights up the sky.
Now here’s what makes this truly special: this entire event is completely FREE for everyone.
But behind the scenes, putting on a show of this scale comes at a significant cost. Even with the incredible support of the City of Peru and our sponsors, we’re facing a funding shortfall—and we need your help to keep this tradition alive and accessible to all.
Your donation directly supports:
• Fuel for the aircraft (some burn up to 75 gallons per hour!)
• Meals for our volunteer crews and pilots
• Essential logistics that keep the show running safely and smoothly
Every dollar truly matters. No one is paid—this event is powered entirely by passionate volunteers and dedicated veterans who give their time to honor history and inspire future generations.
If this event means something to you—if you believe in honoring our veterans, preserving aviation history, and bringing communities together—please consider donating and sharing this message.
With your support, we can make this year’s show soar higher than ever…while keeping it free for everyone who comes to experience it.
Thank you for helping us keep this tradition alive.
