AIR SHOW TIPS
Remember
The Air Show covers a lot of ground, be prepared for lots of walking.
Safety and Security First
  • <LI class=MsoNormal style="COLOR: #00060a; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1">NO COOLERS! Anybody with a cooler will be turned back at the gate. <LI class=MsoNormal style="COLOR: #00060a; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1">All air show visitors and their bags are subject to search while at McGuire. <LI class=MsoNormal style="COLOR: #00060a; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1">There is a no smoking rule on the flight line which is strictly enforced. <LI class=MsoNormal style="COLOR: #00060a; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1">Observe all signs, including the ones that say "do not touch" - they're there for a reason. <LI class=MsoNormal style="COLOR: #00060a; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1">Do not touch any aircraft unless you're invited to do so by the aircrew and never climb on the planes. <LI class=MsoNormal style="COLOR: #00060a; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1">Some aircraft on display are open for tours. Don't let this opportunity to explore these airplanes pass you by. <LI class=MsoNormal style="COLOR: #00060a; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1">Trip hazards are everywhere. Watch for tent ropes and aircraft tie-down chains. They appear out of nowhere. Also, watch for other people. The flight line gets crowded. <LI class=MsoNormal style="COLOR: #00060a; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1">Do not attempt to cross the crowd fencing - this is a show stopper! <LI class=MsoNormal style="COLOR: #00060a; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1">Remember that trash can be sucked up into the aircraft engines, damaging the aircraft and endangering the pilot's life. Please keep the flight line litter-free by using the trash receptacles provided for your convenience. <LI class=MsoNormal style="COLOR: #00060a; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1">No bicycles, skates - including inline skates - or skateboards. The flight line gets too crowded for people on wheels to be maneuvering through the masses.
  • Pets are not permitted on the flight line. Service animals being used for special needs are permitted on the flight line.
First Aid
  • <LI class=MsoNormal style="COLOR: #00060a; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-list: l1 level1 lfo2">Drink plenty of fluids, especially if the day is a sunny, warm, spring day. <LI class=MsoNormal style="COLOR: #00060a; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-list: l1 level1 lfo2">Apply sunscreen often, especially to small children. Temperatures on the flight line typically are higher than normal. Bring a hat - most people forget about the sun beating down on the tops of their heads. <LI class=MsoNormal style="COLOR: #00060a; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-list: l1 level1 lfo2">Take time out to rest during the day. With the excitement, you could become fatigued.
  • A first aid tent will be set up at a yet to be determined location.
Lost and Found
  • A lost and found/information booth will be set at a yet to be determined location to report lost children. Announcements will be made over the public address system. Bring found items or report lost items to the lost and found/information tent.

sorry for all the HTML code in the post. I should have paid more attention to my cut and paste. The details are in the links and in the posts on the NJ forum.
Hope to see some of you there.

If you saw the news, the Fort Dix Army Base was targeted for attack by terrorists. As you may know, Fort Dix is right next to McGuire AFB, the gathering for this Saturday. Show your pride in our country, don't be scared by the terrorists and support our troops.

Available Vipers should gather for the Support Our Troops run to show support for the armed service personnel. Saturday is your chance to show your true colors!!!

Sign up today.
