Osborn said his staff of 400 people and 1,500 volunteers who have worked so hard to get everything read expect as many as 60,000 people from all over New England and elsewhere will come to the air show.

Osborn said the Navy's Blue Angels are always a big draw, especially when this may be the last year in the foreseeable future they will be able to perform in Portsmouth.
