Aerial demonstrations by the United States Air Force, Navy, Marines, & Army are planned along with foreign participation. The show will be headlined by a performance of the YSFlight Thunderbirds.
✈ HOW TO WATCH
This virtual airshow will be held LIVE on a YSFLIGHT server. Music and narration will be provided via Teamspeak 3. Those wishing to watch the show in the server are asked to remain in observer mode for the duration of the event.
NOTE:This virtual air show will be held on the 2012 version of YSFLIGHT, however 2011, 2013 & 2014 versions will work as well. Anything newer than 2015 will NOT be compatible. If you need a version that works,
please download download these two .exe files and insert into your root YSFLIGHT folder. Launch YS by executing these files instead of your normal .exes from the YSFLIGHT folder.

Hello, I am Hornet from South Korea.
Our time zone, KST, uses GMT +9, so in my time zone the airshow will start at 0100AM. So I want to ask if it is possible to change the time of the air show to 0.5~1 Hour earlier.
If it is difficult to do only for me, I would like to ask you to put my demo in front of airshow schedule.
And here is my registration.
Display Name: F-15A TAC Demo
Aircraft: F-15A Eagle

Hornet,
Thank you for reaching out with your question. Pulling the show back an hour for the start would be a little early for our west coast USA players - and we have several. However, I will put your F-15A demo at the beginning of the schedule to accommodate. I hope that works for you. Please let me know.

Plunderbird,
The air show start time will be 5:00PM for you and those in the UK. I have updated it on the initial post as well.
As you already know, Kujo has been hard at work making the scenery for Chanute AFB. I wanted to share his Work In Progress with you all.
Been thinking of taking part in a show. Do you have to land at the end of your display? That's the only thing I'm not to good with.
