	airshow safety - Flightopedia
		Airshows usually feature a series of aerial demonstrations that take place over the runway at an airfield, or over the water by a coastal city.
		No people are allowed in the airshow box except those assisting the pilot in his or her act (for examples, to hold poles the aircraft flies between, or to drive ground vehicles associated with the aerial act).
		This means any roads in the airshow box (such as a highway at one end of the airfield) may have to be closed during the performance, unless the box can be moved to the side of the airfield furthest from any road.

	AIRSHOW FACTS AND INFORMATION (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-06)
		An airshow is an event at which aviators display their flying skills and the capabilities of their flying machines, normally to the public, but occasionally to selected invited guests, or employees and their families only.
		Airshows usually open their gates very early, giving spectators a few hours to wonder around the static displays before flying starts in the late morning or early afternoon.
		Airshows in the US that display the widest variety of modern military aircraft (helicopters, jet fighters, bombers, cargo aircraft, stealth aircraft, etc) are typically the ones held at Nellis AFB, NAS Oceana, and Andrews AFB.
