The Great State of Maine Air Show returned to Brunswick Executive Airport on Sept. 4 and 5, attracting 17,500 aviation fans for the weekend. Headlined by the Blue Angels, plus a number of dramatic aerobatic flights, the event also elicited a small protest about fossil fuel consumption outside the gates.
