Just read over at Flugzeugforum, the next edition of the show at Zeltweg will be at 4 and 5 September 2015.

According to Austrian newspapers today, the Zeltweg show may not take place due to budget cuts planned for the defense forces. On the other hand (and as a personal note), there is still more than one year to go where alternative financial resources may be found and where a lot can change.

Quite common, TBH. Such announcements have come up for every Airpower, at least since the Drakens retired.

Absolutely true. Nevertheless, with a lot of public support, it may become more interesting for sponsors to "save the day". Maybe an idea for a marketing action to purchase more energy drinks of a certain famous Austrian company...

Which, of course has already pumped a lot of money into Airpower over the years.

Anyway, also according to their official website: http://www.airpower.gv.at/ the show is cancelled. So unless new information will be received, I suppose that this event can be removed from the Scramble Airshows Overview.
