Saturday Highlights.
The sun came out Saturday for the 16th Annual Olympic Air Show and a variety of aircraft from R/C Planes, Helicopters, and Warbirds filled the skies above Olympic Flight Museum with low high speed passes and aerobatic maneuvers. A TFR (Temporary Flight Restriction) over Olympia Airport means only Air Boss approved aircraft can enter the show box over Olympia Airport. This safety measure allows stunt pilots and aircraft to perform more aerial maneuvers such as loops, inverted and low passes that you won't see at other air shows.
Day 2 is Sunday June 15th Gates open at 9am.
