Airport authorities said they have been working with the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission to close certain parts of the Turnpike near the Airport to allow for the U.S. Navy Blue Angels to perform during Memorial Day weekend 2019.
The airport director said permission to close the Turnpike near the airport was denied because of expected heavy holiday traffic.
The airshow will return on August 22-23, 2020 with a scheduled appearance by the USAF Thunderbirds.
Latrobe, PA on the western side of the state is also having an airshow that same weekend. They already had the Snowbirds, and have hosted the Blues in the past. Hopefully they make arrangements and pick them up again!
