The theme of this year’s event is “Exploring <br />Aviation” and will feature a wide range of aircraft on display, from <br />antique to military. The event will also feature static displays, the <br />Young Eagles program, and a Young Aviators Activity Center. <br /> <br />“Two completely different air shows will be offered at this year’s event,” said Phil Groshong, tenant and <br />general aviation manager for the Eugene Airport. “Saturday’s performers will be joined by three <br />additional aerobatic pilots making Sunday’s show truly spectacular.” <br /> <br />Ten thousand spectators are expected to attend this year’s two-day event, made up of pilots, aviation <br />enthusiasts, and members of the community.
