Now it doesn't seem like this will be the case this year as it's no longer showing on David Schultz Airshows' schedule page.

Latest update on the event, renamed the Reading Aviation Festival and Career Fair. Static displays include a C-17A and C-130 (likely an MC-130J). Additional static displays will include a PC-12 from Quest Diagnostics, a PA State Police Bell 407, and some other civilian aircraft. Other military static requests that have yet to be confirmed include UH-60s and CH-47s from the US Army and A-10s from the USAF Maryland ANG.
