A crowd forms around the B-24 bomber ‘Diamond Lil’ after landing from a ride during the Janesville Warbird Weekend 2021 at the Southern Wisconsin Regional Airport in July. Warbird Weekend Executive Director Pete Buffington said the planes will not be coming to the airport in 2022 because of high fuel prices and the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
