Air show dazzles, delights at Harrisburg airport
MIDDLETOWN, Pa. (WHTM) — The Harrisburg International Airport is busier than usual this weekend, and it's not just Memorial Day travel.
The Air Dot Show Central PA is in town this weekend.
While some may have secured their spot to see the show at the airport near Middletown early, there wasn't a bad time to arrive.

'It's been great so far,' Anne Marie Lora told abc27 News. 'We've loved watching everything in the sky and all the trickster planes and all the smoke behind them. So we've really enjoyed our time here.'
The U.S. Navy Blue Angels are the shows headline act and are back in the Midstate for the first time in decades.
'My husband and I actually remember it from when we were kids,' Megan Walsh said.

'I was a lot younger than what my son and actually my two sons, they're one of the ones that lives in Florida now. So, he's not here,' Andy Hirko said. 'But this year we're able to bring the grandson along, too. He loves it. He loves the Blue Angels. He's been taking pictures of everything, the F-35, the F-16. So he's really excited and just doing a lot of pictures.'
A lot may have changed at Harrisburg International Airport since the Blue Angels' last appearance here, a lot has stayed the same.
