The update that i have for you all is that the Thunderbirds are scheduled to perform in the Far East (Townsville included) this year in September and that the dates and locations are very soon to be approved. When i have the approved dates i shall let you people know. (after i have booked my flights and accommodation before the rush
 )I shall bring you the good/bad news in July. Stay tuned. By the way, being a struggling student at the moment, whats the best and most cost effective method of getting there from Syd, not car though? Jetstar from Sydney on a Fri then a Sunday or flying with Qantas or Virgin to Brisbane then to Townsville? Actually i just had a look, Virgin Blue are having a sale from Syd - Townsville for 179 one way. I thought they didnt fly direct? Pitty its only travel up to the 10th Sept!!

Can anyone who has been to one of these events previously give me a rough idea of what time the flying display was on as i'm looking at the different options for the flights to and from and just want to get it out of the way before they get sold out.
And any recommendations for accommodation? Price/location to airport/flying display. Any help would be appreciated.

Well, i received an email from a Master Sergent at Nellis informing me that the Thunderbirds are in fact "tentatively" scheduled to perform in Townsville on that weekend and "look forward to performing for me". Good enough confirmation for me!
So i guess a should book flights etc but still not completly decided on whether i should head on up. How many other members here are going to be going?

If i can make it...is the Aquarius on the Beach a good place to stay?
And who is the best/fastest to fly with? Qantas? If i caught a 6am flight that got me there on sat morning at 11 would i have time to make it to the strand before the display or am i better off going up on friday some time?
