This looks like a nice set up of flights and demos.  My questions is do you have a list of the aircraft being flown so that we the spectators can download them so we see the proper aircraft?

I've got a map of the layout and will post it here ASAP.  We're also working on a file containing all of the planes that will be flown for the show, when that's done I'll post it here as well. 

We'd love to have all of you watching!

Hi everyone, I’m the guy running the June 8th show along with Tomcat’s help. Those of you that are interested are very welcome to come fly. The more the merrier. However I do ask that if you plan on performing you either get me on AIM, packfanfourever, or email me at mattsorensen@cableone.net by June 1st. Please note that I will be out of town starting tomorrow until the 31st but if you email me I will get back to you as soon as I get home. To fly you must be able to fly with FS2004, have teamspeak, and AIM. So yeah, it should end up being a good time, I’ll try to post updates here as often as I can. As for performers here is what I have confirmed for now.

Hey everyone, just letting you know that right now we are looking at about 11 acts total for the show so if anyone else would be interested in contributing to the show please feel free. Could be a full on demo or just flying with the warbirds. Either way everyone is welcome to come and watch because it should be a fun event. Start time in 12pm CST by the way.

Here's the link to aircraft folder.  It contains all of the aircraft that will be flown during the show, so if you install it you'll be able to see the right plane for whoever is flying.

Here's the updated list of performers for the show tomorrow.  Flying starts at one.  Don't come to the show if you're going to start flying around in the middle of it.  If you come and want to leave, just spawn at a different airport somewhere else.

West Coast Demo Team Flyby/Arrival
Missing Man Flyover in honor of Kevin Davis and Shawn McCaughey
F-15 Demonstration
Warbird Review (P-47, F-86, F8F, B-25)
Premier of a new West Coast Demo Team Act
Drunken Pilot Act
WCD Formation Show
P-51 Demonstration
USAF Heritage flight
MiG-29 Demonstration
B-1B Demonstration
Two-ship F-16 Demonstration

I believe Ghost will be narrating during the show tomorrow, so send your narration script and music to either him or I.  Otherwise we won't be able to play anything for you. 

My AIM is Tomcatboy48237, Ghost's is GhstFlight115.

Just letting everyone know that in order to reduce lag on the performers we're going to password protect the server during each act.  We will remove the password and have a gap between acts so that anyone who wants to can join.  Please join the server in the PA Dude and then sit with the crowd.

If you try to join the server and can't get in, either get on TS to listen for the gap or just keep trying.

Well, we had one hell of a bad day, stemming from the eight or so server crashes on both FS and TS. We spent about two hours searching for servers that wouldn't go down only to see them go down in flames. Most of the people called it quits after that but a few of us stuck around and ended up on a server hosted by myself. We finished up the show ourselves and actually ended up having a great time. I'll be trying to get an FSX friendly pack out tonight with at least some of the planes. If you're looking to come tomorrow, we'll be on my TS and FS servers which should be at IP 141.213.219.56

If you want to see some screenshots from today, check out these two threads:
http://www.airshowbuzz.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=2669
http://www.airshowbuzz.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=2641&view=findpost&p=45031

I compacted the airshow pack down and took out a few planes I don't think you'll see flying tomorrow, so hopefully it will work with FSX now. Those of you having issues should try downloading this pack instead of the other one. It's a somewhat smaller 618 MB
