Key Takeaways:
The "Wings Over Washington" air show successfully debuted at Bremerton National Airport (KPWT) on August 19-20, marking the first air show there in 35 years and relocating from its previous home due to outgrowing the space.
The event celebrated the region's Navy heritage, featuring a wide array of vintage aircraft displays, aerobatic performances, and attractions like biplane rides and a car show benefiting youth pilot scholarships.
Despite hazy skies, the show garnered a "pretty good turnout" and is planned to become an annual event, with organizers already working to build momentum and secure participation for next year.
If it was vintage and could be flown or driven, chances are good it made an appearance at the Wings Over Washington air show on August 19 and 20 at Bremerton National Airport (KPWT).
According to Jim Rothlin, the CEO of the Port of Bremerton, the event was the first air show at KPWT in 35 years.
