Air Force Thunderbirds air show slated to continue

Posted

CHEYENNE (WNE) — Although Cheyenne Frontier Days has been canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds air show is scheduled to carry on.

The current plan is to hold the air show at F.E. Warren Air Force Base, which last year hosted the event for the first time since 1993.

The F-16s that make up the Thunderbirds fleet are tentatively slated to arrive in Cheyenne on a Monday — July 20 this year — then perform their full show Wednesday, July 22, though those dates could still change.

“We want to do this to make people feel good and be able to get out and enjoy a sense of community,” said Cheyenne Regional Airport Director Tim Barth.
