Spectators are at very low risk at an air show
It has been six decades since a spectator at an air show in the United States has been killed or injured in an accident. And that is no accident. The FAA and air show industry have worked together to create standards that protect spectators even though air show performers accept a certain level of risk to fly their performances. An air race, however, is very different from an air show and the risk to spectators at an air race cannot be reduced to the same level as an air show. There are hundreds of air shows each year with excellent safety standards to protect the public, but air races are very rare with only one major event held each year.

Herb Hunter
Airshow fans who have attended Midwest Airshows have learned to appreciate announcer Herb Hunter as probably the smoothest "microphone jockey" in the business. To those hearing Herb for the first time, his quintessential ability to keep an audience informed and entertained at the same time will be obvious from word one.
