This year's Great Georgia Airshow, an annual fall event in Peachtree City, has been canceled, but organizers vow it will return in 2013.

The annual event in October typically draws a crowd of about 25,000 spectators during its three-day run.

Air show organizers said the organization's board decided to take a year off to do a comprehensive review of many aspects of the show.

The event is put on by the Kiwanis Club of Peachtree City and the Dixie Wing of the Commemorative Air Force, based at Falcon Field. Proceeds from the show support the Dixie Wing's efforts to restore and maintain its World War II-era vintage aircraft.
