Herb Hunter

Welcome Back Herb Hunter! Announcer Herb Hunter returns for his 6th year to provide "play by play" about what is going on in the air and on the ground over AirFest 2011 weekend. Herb utilizes his many years of experience as a military pilot and captain for one of the major airlines in his role as the "Voice of Rockford AirFest 2011." Herb's knowledge of flying and enthusiasm behind the microphone are just a few reasons why he is one of the top air show announcers in the country. We are thrilled to have Herb return to Rockford.
