Nearly 100,000 spectators witnessed an awesome performance of military and civilian aircraft during the 2010 show, which included a number of off-base events during air show week and we are expecting more for 2012.
“Our 2010 air show was, without a doubt, a huge success for the air station,” said NAS Kingsville Air Boss LCDR Dave Anderson. ”Our attendance numbers were staggering and our performers literally went above-and-beyond to give spectators a top-notch show.”
Anderson said the success was a result of a total team effort by the Air Show committee, which began putting the show together nearly 12 months prior to the event. He also credited news coverage before, during and after the event.
“We received national news coverage of the show through Fox News Bureau West out of Dallas, and international coverage through a number of Web sites,” Anderson added. “We also had some great weather, which helped get the people onto the base for the show.”
Anderson said the command is bringing back a number of the 2010 performers for the 2012 show, including the Blues and world aerobatic champion Rob Holland. New to the line-up will be the Indy Boys and their jet-powered vehicles and the Disabled American Veterans Flight team. (View Rob Holland’s 2011 wrap-up video – click this link)
