(Rick Egan | The Salt Lake Tribune) The U.S.A.F. Thunderbirds perform at the Warriors Over the Wasatch airshow at Hill Airforce Base, Sunday, June 24, 2018.
The Warriors Over the Wasatch Air Show at Hill Air Force Base will be postponed until 2027, the base announced Tuesday. Base officials said in a release that the postponement was due to “operational commitments.”
Officials didn’t say what those commitments were, but they likely are related to the 421st Fighter Squadron and other personnel based at Hill being involved in the ongoing war in Iran.
The show will be rescheduled to June 19-20, 2027.
The air show, held every other year, usually draws hundreds of thousands of visitors to the Davis County base to see the U.S. Air Force’s flying team, the Thunderbirds, and other aerial performances.
