2023 Westmoreland County Airshow kicks off at Arnold Palmer Regional Airport

LATROBE, Pa. — The Westmoreland County Airshow kicked off on Saturday.

The airshow is running at the Arnold Palmer Regional Airport.

This year one of the big attractions was U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds. This is the first time the Thunderbirds have been back at the airshow since 2017.

Visitors could see F-16 jet fighters, a P-51 freighter, an A-10 Thunderbolt and a USMC V-22 Osprey.

Some people can also take a “wing walk” which allows them to walk along the wing of a TBM Avenger to see the cockpit.

Vintage planes and unique cars are also on display.

The airshow will run on Sunday too and opens at 9 a.m. Parking is $5 and tickets are $25.
