Airports are designed to provide efficient transportation services to the public. Extensive planning and management are required to meet this business need while converting the facility into an airshow venue that will host thousands of spectators. The layout and design of every aspect of the airshow are vital to the event’s success. A well-organized and comprehensive layout strategy impacts your show’s ability to provide quality customer service, sponsorship fulfillment and most importantly, safety. Site design determines where aircraft are positioned, how they move on the field, where emergency services are stationed, vendor and sponsor location and public parking. Addressing show design is key in creating a safe, successful and profitable airshow.

This demands careful planning on the use of primary and secondary roads, parking capacity and the availability of  law enforcement and volunteers to help with traffic management. AirSupport provides planning and management services targeted to this crucial area.

A community that embraces and shows pride for an airshow is key to an event’s success. Civic clubs, youth groups, church organizations and anyone with a passion for aviation can and should be encouraged to participate as a volunteer. AirSupport advises on recruiting and organizing volunteers to help you produce an enjoyable and safe community event.
