airshows
Flying demonstration events
Airshows are public exhibitions of aircraft in flight, featuring aerobatic maneuvers, formation flying, and displays of military and civilian planes.
They draw crowds to watch pilots perform stunts, loops, and precision flying: We took the kids to the airshow at the naval base.
Static displays on the ground let visitors examine aircraft up close.
