If you get a chance, drop by the TSTC booth and say hey. I'll be there promoting my flight school. I couldn't pass up an opportunity to fly in (avoid the ridiculous parking) and get paid to go to an airshow. I'll be right next to the KC-135 in front of a DA20-C1. We were hoping to bring our new Arrow with Avidyne avionics, but unfortunately it didn't get out of maintenance in time.

Cool, I should be able to stop by if I remember O_O. Wish I could afford flight school

Why is there two #7 planes in the last picture? Is this one frame or is this been sandwiched together? Great pictures.

one of the two #7s is used for VIP flights (i.e. some lucky person in the crowd or a pre-selected participant). the other (usually a single seater or in some cases a 2 seater), is used as a backup if one of the regular jets is down for maintenance or safety issues.

At Air Show sites, VIP Flights are generally given to local Media (usually one print and one electronic) as part of the BAs PR Function.
