Dream Airshow

1) Pick an airfield
2) You can have up to 4 "acts" per category unless stated otherwise
3) All aircraft must be "flying" at the moment and used for air shows, countries doesn't matter
4) When it starts and finishes
5) Facilities (toilets, burgers, fairground, stalls etc)
6) State the price of the tickets

Categories:

Opening act (1 only)
Aerobatics
Gliders
Fast Jets

They could fly, and were used for airshows 'till recently

[Xplumberlives]

Oh thats all right then!

3) All aircraft must be "flying" at the moment and used for air shows, countries doesn't matter



I'll have a team of 22 Vulcans doing a loop just like the Black Arrows, in fact let's combine them and have 44 jets doing a loop!

[Olicat]

At the moment could mean flying right this minute!

Oh all right Replace the Thunder City ones with an F4 and an Etendard IVM

[Xplumberlives]

At the moment could mean flying right this minute!

Yes it could do, but I think you know what it actually meant!
