Re-Enactors

VA Beach Airshow 2010
As of May 29, 2008, the Fighter Factory officially has opened their museum. This is our chance to be on the ground level of something new, great and exciting. The plans as stated are for the respective units to be around their respective planes, pilots and ground crew. When you arrive at the event, the planes WILL be there and you won't have to wait to see whether or not they show up. The organizers are open to any scenario that you may have in mind whether you portray an infantry impression or air force. This is not just a airshow as it is inclusive of all infantry and other impressions as well. All impressions are welcome and the sky is the limit. Briefings, drill, scrambles, displays, aircraft recognition, training lectures, and so on- a lot of the same things that are normally done at shows by your respective units. The scenarios can be limitless as long as they involve public education. There can be no political affiliations represented.

We are looking for Allied and Axis re-enactors of high quality to take part in this show. There’s plenty of room for infantry and other units at this event as well. 

For ground troops – who at the other major shows are just as important and a huge draw at events – there will be plenty of room for displays of field equipment, vehicles, etc. and while we haven’t discussed it as of yet, they would likely be open to tactical displays .

One of the best things that we have experienced with the FF is that they are VERY re-enactor friendly, particularly if educating the public is your thing.
