The 2024 Maxwell Beyond the Horizon Air and Space Show is in the books, and by all accounts, it was more successful than any previous air show held at the central Alabama, Air Force base.
It’s not surprising, considering it had been seven years since Maxwell Air Force Base hosted its last air show.
An estimated 200,000 spectators either came through the gates April 6-7 to view the latest spectacle or watched it live online. The 2017 air show drew an estimated in-person crowd of 135,000.
