Every year, when we're sitting down at the river or maybe even in our front yards, many of us are likely thinking that the Owensboro Air Show HAS to rank as one of the best events in the country.

Well, we would all be correct. The Owensboro Air Show HAS been named as one of the ten best air shows in the country, and this isn't some arbitrary designation. The USA Today is legendary for its many polls, and the readers always respond. This time, they and the USA Today editors loved our air show so much, they put it in the national top ten.

It goes without saying that we couldn't agree more.

After the weekend of September 13th through the 15th, don't be surprised if the Owensboro Air Show once again shows up on the USA Today survey. The 2024 lineup is a mind-blower.

From the moment all of that extraordinary aircraft filled the skies over Owensboro in 2013, we all knew we were dealing with what would become one of the premiere events all across Kentucky. But now, folks are coming from all over the country to take in what has become one of the top ten air shows in the nation.

Hey, USA Today, save room on next year's list. We'll be back.
