Well just so hangtime doesn't have a heart attack......the last airshow we did had more than a few parking zones for the patrons. The flight line itself had a few security checkpoints to go through. In order to go onto the flight line you had to go through a security check point NO DIFFERENT THAN IF THE BASE WAS RUNNING ACTUAL AIR OPERATIONS.

In 1978 I was the Travis Air Show. Sat on my cooler full of beer, smoked marlboros, had a Buck knife on my belt and had a VHF radio to listen to the cockpit and tower traffic.

Don't tell me the Terrorists haven't won.

When you are not allowed to have all those items PLUS have a koran on your person, THEN they have won.
