Useful for this show
- Hearing protection Thunderbirds fly fast jets – very loud, especially for children. Ear defenders or foam plugs.
- Sun protection A June show on an open airfield with little shade – hat, sunglasses, sunscreen.
- Water bottle Hot days on the flight line are long. Many shows ban coolers and some allow only sealed or empty bottles – check the organizer’s list of allowed items first.
- Folding chair 2 show days – most of it waiting for the next act. Check the organizer’s rules for chairs near the crowd line.
- Power bank Photos, videos and e-tickets drain phones, and mobile networks slow down in big crowds.
- Binoculars To follow the solos and formations far out over the display line.
- Rain poncho Shows usually go ahead in light rain; a poncho packs small and does not block anyone’s view.
The organizer’s rules come first: check the list of allowed items.
