Airshow Opening?

Postby flyboy4992 » Wed Aug 30, 2006 7:46 pm

I am putting on the airshow on the 9th of sept. but one problem. there is no opening display. it would be nice to have a couple of big bombers with some fighters and things like that for a big flyover to start things off. let me know what you guys have in mind. i would like to do a tribute for all the people that fought in the war in the 1940's. so like a B17 P-51, spitfire, things like that. let me know what you guys come up with.

Maybe the VBBMF could start it off? Just an idea....

Well, maybe you could ask Mic for a little get together on the server to see what they are like and decide that way. Just another idea ;).......

You could come along to one of our sporadic and random practices......although I swear we have some pics somewhere of us in the air....I have a few of us on the ground.

The problem is that i cant be taking screens whilst concentrating on formation factors such as speed and height.

Ok, ive got an idea. We could use a few flyable formations to do a big flypast, then we'd only need a couple of pilots but it would still look good. I know there are flyable formations of the Red Arrows, Patrioulle de France, The spanish display team (forget what they're called), The Black Sea Hawks, A greek mirage team, The midnight hawks, The saudi hawks etc. Im sure there is more available. If anyone wants to do this then it would look awesome Image.
