Huntington Beach agreed to pay up to $7m to Code Four for cancelled 2021 airshow due to oil spill.
Huntington Beach agreed to pay up to $7m to Code Four, operator of the annual airshow, after cancelling it in 2021 due to an oil spill. The city initially refused to release full details of the settlement, sparking controversy. A local school board member fought for transparency, and the document was eventually released, revealing concessions that could cost millions. The agreement followed a lawsuit filed by Pacific Airshow operator Kevin Elliott alleging significant losses after the event's final day was cancelled.
