They're from the U.S. Army and will be using the Lehigh Valley International Airport as a staging area for refueling through Monday, April 8, the airport said.

According to 6abc, the aircrafts will be refueling at Hangar 7, just south of the runways of the Hanover Township airport.

"The public should not be concerned with the increased traffic," the airport said.

Locals were excited for an airshow.

"Thank you for letting us know," one person said. "I'll have my eye to the sky this weekend."
