Record Number at NC Air Show

The pre-Memorial Day weekend Wings Over Wayne Air Show, held May 20 and 21 at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, attracted a record crowd of 230,000. The biennial display of historic and contemporary airpower kicked off the 75th-anniversary celebration of the 4th Fighter Wing and the birth of military aviation in North Carolina.  Wings Over Wayne is held in odd-numbered years and is a way for Seymour Johnson to thank the local community for their support of airpower and the base’s mission. The base’s next air show is scheduled in May 2019.
