1, spitfire, 2 lancaster, 3 hawker tempest, 4 p51 d, 5 mossie, 6 bristol beaufighter, 7 blackbird, 8 tornado gr1, 9 eurofighter, 10 f 16 fighting falcon

1. Blue Angels in F/A-18E Superhornets fly a high show and remain aloft. Since MC-130 Fat Albert is part of the Blues show, C-130 JATO takeoff and acrobatic demo to start things off.
2. F4U Corsair acrobatic demo, F4U - F/A-18E heritage pass with Blue Angel lead solo.
3. F-86 Sabre acrobatic demo
4. P-51D acrobatic demo, 2x P-51D - 2x F-86 Missing man formation.
5. Hughes H-4 Hercules low level flyby, because that’s about all she could manage.
6. Ka-50 Hokum acrobatic demo and live weapons test.
7. Sopwith Camel acrobatic demo, perhaps a low-level pass with the Ka-50.
8. Sukoi PAK FA acrobatic demo, slow pass with Sopwith.
9. Bell-X1 subsonic demo with B-29 drop.
10. Horton Ho-229 V3 acrobatic demo.

Oh but why not, live fire all through the crowd would be much safer than the immediately preceeding Spruce Goose flyover/ crash.

Be sure to keep the canopy open on the Tempest when starting her up. Don't want the fumes to suffocate the pilot before taking off!

Really, a PAK FA doing a flyby with a Sopwith!? You do know, that even a Spitfire with a Griffon and more powerful Spits, have a hard time flying alongside a Sopwith. The pilot of the Spit has to pretty much fly on the edge of falling out of the sky! While the Sopwith pilot fly's at max throttle. I don't think that'd be a very good show for the people, when a multi-milion dollar jet falls.

You could use blanks?

I would think it viable given good pilots in each. I am fully presupposing PAK FA performance on par with an F-22. At a recent real airshow I witnessed an F-22 come to a dead stop above show center at high angle of attack with full thrust vectoring. The same F-22 made a high angle of attack pass at roughly 70 knots before doing a few cartwheels, making a quick expresso for the crowd, finishing my taxes, and running off into the heavens. Add into that equation a Sopwith pilot peddling for all he's worth, and you have a sight that would surely bring tears to my eyes.

Just to give you an idea, for the challenge, skip through to about 4:50 in the video. I'm not saying what you're thinking would be impossible, but since we don't know all that much about the PAK FA yet, and its capabilities, I'm not so sure that the PAK FA would be so capable of flying along side with a Sopwith.

Spitfire & Camel

of course blanks that sorts that, in fantasy airshow land dreams can come true so i think what mckinney is asking for is fine-a small detail.
theres no wrong answer to my question -its all good
