Give aways 0% (0) Don't need no "give aways": if I want something, I buy it I went back to the other poll (which ended before it began), and copied and pasted these options:Īirshow 0% (0) I come to warbird events to fly with other warbirds, meet and communicate with other warbird enthusiests, and communicate with spectators when they are present. This is a poll? I see only one option: "Airshow". More than happy to pay for it in support of the club. YES, I want a shirt! I spill a lot of glue in the winter. helicopter) are too different to be flown together in the same airspace. The flight envelopes of different genres, let alone types (jet vs. Same issues we are all aware of with mixing helis, 3D and scale - it doesn't work. WW1 guys flew with WW1 guys, same for WW2 guys, experimental and the few jets present. Personal oppinion, everyone at Fond du Lac was very respectful of one another. Push communication in morning pilot meeting and if event is multi-day, be willing to make changes (improvements) as needed.
To some extent, it's a little bit on the shoulders of the pilots and crews to help make an event like that, and yours, run smoothly. Despite activity level, flying was the most enjoyable and comfortable I’ve experienced all summer. Spotters were talking with one another and AirBoss was constantly talking to spotters/pilots as well as crews in on-deck starting boxes. Flight ops Saturday morning were almost on par with a normal day at Chicago O’Hare! Never once felt concerned. Midwest Warbirds in Fond du Lac WI a few weeks ago was very busy and extremely well ran.
Keep it controlled! The comment about the AirBoss in the previous post is dead on. (hooter girls maybe)įly the American flag and honor the Pilots and crews who gave the ultimate sacrifice. Invite the youth of the civil air patrol. They have their place - but not in a event like that.įinal, a good flier - posted everywhere. No non military helicopters period - these machines are for most fixed wing pilots very annoying. Prices are kinda standard - Best of show, Best pre ww2, best ww2, best post ww2 and then seconds this would be 8 prices and this takes not that long and keep the guys from dinner. Raffles are good and fun - brings revenue for the club, this money needs to go back in improvements for the next event! The Airboss need to know what he is doing - the most important man at the event! There are people who flu never with each other. The radio impound need to be flawless and strict. Is there are a chaos and too "much action" people leave and never come back. Keep it simple and the guys will like it and come back. A spotter should be required for each pilot.Īnyhow, I understand you like this event as a success - my advice: don't pressure your self in too many things. Safety is first, as more relaxed the pilots are, as better the "show". But, a warbird event should be a warbird event. Larry, don't bore the pilots with "disco birds".
