The article cites a high workload in organising the event, a need for a creative pause and a desire to give the volunteer workforce a break.
The airfield, the local flying school and the fly-in is managed and organised by the same family-owned operation, so I'm not surprised.
While Friedrichshafen is (or attempts to be) a glamorous trade show, alienating enthusiasts and people who actually want to fly there alike, Tannkosh to me seems to be quite the contrary, so I fail to understand the comparison.

I wonder why?
The Friedrichshafen show in April this year was far less packed than previous ones, with an obvious down trend year on year.
I wonder if each show has a definite lifecycle? Let's face it, the vast majority of stuff exhibited is the same from one to the next.
Perhaps the German bankers getting a, what, 50% 60% 70% or is it 100% haircut depresses matters
