Want to fly at this year's Aerobatic Expo? If so, just fill out the questionnaire below, and post it as a reply to this thread! A separate entry is required for each display. We are no longer restricting entries solely to members of YSFHQ, but as always, the limit of a maximum of two (2) solo displays for each performer still applies. However, formation or multi-ship displays are unlimited and highly encouraged.

|Additional Notes (optional):

We now have a separate registration procedure for applicants who are not YSFHQ members. If this is the case for you, simply contact me on Discord (HawkbitAlpha#2112) to get started and sign up using the alternate method.

The mass flight will be back in full force this fall! These are a special part of the show in which all participants, performers and spectators alike, can take part and fly. For Aerobatic Expo 2022, our mass flights will be the Hot Air Balloon Rally before the show, in which all participants will be allowed to fly around the airspace in hot air balloons.

For questions regarding organization, routines, or other general matters, you can leave a reply in this thread containing your question, and we'll get back to you as soon as we can. However, for easier access, feel free to contact one of us on Discord (HawkbitAlpha#2112 or Alpha Star#3437) for help.

I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for my signature, I can tell you I don't have one. But what I do have are a very particular lack of skills, skills I have imagined having over a very long career. Skills that make me are completely useless in any situation. If you stop reading now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't stop reading, I will look for you, I will probably not find you, and I will kill your refrigerator.

IMPORTANT: We had a mix-up during writing of this thread, and linked to a version of the Ocean Lake City map which uses a different name. Be sure to re-download the map and its dependency packs as now linked, or you won't be able to log into the server on show day.

Thank you to everyone who turned out today and made YS Aerobatic Expo 2022 possible (especially Alpha Star as our co-host)! While this show did get more out of hand than I imagine any of us had expected, this was a great time, and one of my personal favorite events to date. This may or may not be our last show of the 2022 season, but until next time, cheers!
