The skies over Dayton will roar to life this weekend as the CenterPoint Energy Dayton Air Show returns for two days of high-flying excitement.
The annual event takes place Saturday and Sunday at Dayton International Airport, featuring military demonstrations, aerobatic performers, historic aircraft, and family-friendly attractions.
Peak of Ohio News had crews on the ground Friday for Media Day, getting an up-close look at the aircraft and performers ahead of the weekend crowds.
Those who attended the preview say this year’s show is shaping up to be bigger and better than ever.
