The Saskatchewan Airshow has finally returned and with stunning performance, with over 18,000 tickets sold and 5 hours of professional air demonstration.

Eventually becoming sold out and closing its parking gates mid afternoon on Saturday.

Colonel Denis O'Reilly speaks on the reality of the airshow being back.

"It's been a reality for a long time because of all the work the teams put into this but I think for the people of Saskatchewan when they get here will realise this is a full up airshow. This is 5 hours of air demonstration, a ramp full of aircraft, nothing but the best in terms of vendors and a beer garden and spirits available. So we've got something for all ages/all aviation enthusiasts, everything from fighter aircraft and vintage aircraft and everything in between."

Colonel O'Reilly noted that the customer experience has been a very big focus.
