    As I have stated on another thread, we bring 3 to 5 aircraft, always shoot for row 90 or there about. South of the speakers as you can't here them during the airshow anyway and a real pain the rest of thr day!

    No matter how far you push the envelope; its still stationary!

    stationary = does not move.
    stationery = paper, envelopes, etc.

    English, a delightful language to learn. oh, and I agree about the speakers.

    Okay guys, I think we call this one a draw...

    If this thread needs to continue, let's keep it focused on the original topic: speakers that were too big and way too loud last year.

    Thanks!

    The legacy sound system was worthless in my opinion. As soon as any plane was in the air, you couldn't hear what was being said anyway. I for one liked the new speakers, for once I could hear the announcer and understand what he was saying about the aircraft in the air.

    Frankly, the announcer is usually a bunch of inane drivel, mostly inaccurate at best and usually patently fictional stories that do nothing to enhance the airshow experience. Thank god I'm usually far enough south that I can't hear it.

    Okay... so sticking my head out on the chopping block here... What did you think of our new speakers in 2013? McGyver
