The Air Show soars back into Fort Lauderdale this weekend and it’s expected to boost South Florida’s economy.

“We feel this event will infuse money into the economy. People are starved for entertainment and the fact it is outside makes it more positive. We are expecting great weather and big crowds at the beach,” says Air Show spokesman Chris Dirato.

Dirato says last month when a similar show was held in Cocoa, Florida, the economic benefits were enormous.
