On September 6 and 7, 2024, Airpower24 took place for the 11th time at the Hinterstoisser Air Base in Zeltweg.

With around 250.000 visitors, the air show was once again a crowd puller. Organized by the Austrian Armed Forces in collaboration with Red Bull and the state of Styria, Airpower24 offered numerous flight demonstrations, including the highlight, a "dogfight" between two Eurofighters. According to estimates, the event contributed around 10 million euros to regional added value and put Styria in the international spotlight as a tourism and technology location.

Brigadier Wolfgang Prieler emphasized the logistical effort and the high training value for the Federal Army, while Raimund Riedmann from the Flying Bulls emphasized the enthusiasm of the spectators. In addition to spectacular flight maneuvers, the guests were also able to experience military demonstrations. With a total of 6.200 emergency personnel, including over 3.300 soldiers, the implementation was a major logistical challenge.
