Every year, from March through November, millions of people
hit the road to watch the excitement and thrills as military and civilian
flight demonstration teams put their high performance aircraft through the
paces to entertain the crowds and perform at air shows all over the world.
Anyone who has attended one of these events will tell you it is thrilling to
watch the close quarter flying of the Blue Angels delta formation or the
hair-splitting maneuvers of the Thunderbird opposing solos.
While attending the show and enjoying the sights and sounds
is an exciting experience that is only half the fun. You can add another whole
dimension to that visual experience by monitoring the performing teams’ radio
communications.
With a radio scanner in hand, you will experience a whole new the perspective of the show that few of the attendees will ever experience – pilot
audio from the aircraft cockpit. While everyone else at the air show is just
watching and listening to the public address system narrator, you’ll be able to
hear what’s happening inside the cockpit, up in the tower and on the ground
with the hundreds of players that keep these screaming, state-of-the-art air
machines thundering through the skies.
But you can’t tell the players without a program, and to indulge
in the craft of monitoring the air show experience you need a current and
well-researched list of frequencies that the various performers may use during
their performances.
In our new annual Teak Publishing International Air Show
Guide eBook, 21st Edition, former Monitoring Times Editor and TSM Milcom
columnist Larry Van Horn - N5FPW, delivers the hundreds of air and ground
frequencies that you will need to monitor the action when you are within
receiving distance of any air show this year.
From the Blue Angels and Thunderbirds, military parachute and
search and rescue demonstration teams, to a wide variety of other military and
civilian demonstration teams from the U.S. and abroad, Larry has the list of
frequencies each unit has used. Now you can bring the excitement you see at the
show to your ears. Listening to the nonstop action at the air show on dozens of
radio frequencies is part of the real fun of being there.
But wait, there’s more! Larry also has a chapter on tips for
enjoying a great day at the air show. You will also get frequency lists for
other possible frequencies that may be used at the air show including DoD
Intra-Squad Radio frequencies and hosting site aero and LMR frequencies/call
signs. We also include in this eBook up-to-date air show frequency listings for
overseas military and civilian aeronautical demonstrations teams.
Finally, you will get the latest air show schedules for the U.S.
Navy Blue Angels, U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds, Canadian Forces Snowbirds, the
Army Golden Knight Parachute Teams and more. We include the latest air traffic
control frequencies and selected LMR trunk radio systems for each facility
hosting or associated with a show when known.
