Not only a lot of disappointed spotters but also lots of hotel owners that will receive a bunch of cancellations with this news. Not good for the local tourism industry.

Yes... Bad news... 
Disapointed but hoping that there'll be one next year.

I've heard that the Hungarian AF is trying to create a bigger budget to create some new jobs within the AF.
3500 new jobs were mentioned. Because of these cutbacks all displays on national and foreign airshows are cancelled.
Sad news for the spotters, but good news for these 3500 who are going to work for the Hungarian AF!!
