Boshears Skyfest 2013 Postponed

Partial Government Shutdown Means No Waiver For Aerobatics

The 21st Annual Boshears Skyfest scheduled for October 19th and 20th 2013 has been rescheduled to April 26th and 27th 2014.  The show has been postponed due to the partial government shutdown, which includes parts of the FAA.

In order to have an air show with aerobatic performances, an air show waiver is required. Organizers of the event say that at this time the waiver for the Boshears Skyfest is still at the FAA office.

"Boshears Skyfest was advertised as an air show.  No waiver means no air show. This community deserves the show that has been advertised. To that end, the Executive Committee made the decision to postpone the event until spring of 2014," the organizers said in a news release.

All advance tickets purchased will be refunded. Please contact Augusta Aviation at 706.733.8970, for further information on refunds.

The mission of Boshears Skyfest is to honor the memory of the Boshears brothers by raising awareness of general aviation and its history in Augusta, especially to the youth of the Central Savannah River Area.
