TBM Avenger Gathering 2017 The 2nd Annual TBM Avenger Gathering will be held tomorrow at the Illinois Valley Regional Airport in Peru, IL. At least 14 Grumman TBM Avengers are expected to gather at this year’s event. Other warbird’s may also fly-in including B-25 Mitchells, A-1 Skyraiders, and P-51 Mustangs, F4U Corsair, F8F Bearcat, F4F Wildcat, F-86 Sabre, MiG-17 Fresco, and T-33 Shooting Star. The only dampener this is, of course, the weather. Today has been rainy all day and tomorrow will likely be the same. The crowds may be a bit lighter this year, but it will still be a great event, if the warbirds can get through the weather.
