SHOW CENTER The Airshow Podcast - Sun N Fun Preview 2026!
SHOW CENTER The Airshow Podcast - Well… we tried. There was a moment—right before we hit record—when it felt like we were turning a corner. Lights on. Cameras rolling. SHOW CENTER, finally in full video. And then… well… not quite.Call it a near miss. The kind that’s just close enough to know you’re getting there. So for now, you’ve got us the way it all started—on the mics, where the stories still matter most. And truth be told, this one’s worth it.Because just like that… it’s airshow season again.Fresh off the ramp at the MCAS Yuma Airshow, Matt brings a firsthand look at the Blue Angels kicking off their 2026 season. There’s something about that first show—the pacing, the precision, the feeling that a long winter has finally given way to blue skies and jet noise.Ric and Steph are setting their sights on Lakeland as preparations ramp up for Sun 'n Fun Aerospace Expo—better known as “Pilot’s Spring Break.” This episode, they’re joined by longtime airshow professional Dennis Dunbar, Director of Airshow & Attractions, offering a look at what’s in store, what’s new, and why Sun ’n Fun continues to mark the true start of the season for so many across the industry.And of course, it wouldn’t be SHOW CENTER without Ric Peterson’s “Prop Wash”—a fast-moving rundown of what’s happening across the airshow world. From ICAS updates to industry movement, it’s the kind of segment that keeps you plugged in, whether you’re on the ramp, in the stands, or somewhere in between.It’s a full episode. It’s a new season. And even without the video (for now)… it’s exactly where we want to be. Ready when you are.#airshowannouncer #airshows #ricpeterson #stephstricklen #sunnfun #mcasyuma #blueangels

SHOW CENTER The Airshow Podcast - The Big Season Opener 2026!
SHOW CENTER: The Airshow Podcast, we’re covering the full spectrum of what makes this industry special—from elite preparation to raw resilience, and ultimately, the heart that binds the airshow family together.We start the episode with Aaron Fitzgerald from Red Bull, as he walks us through the team’s upcoming training cycle heading into the 2026 airshow season. Aaron gives us a look behind the curtain at how Red Bull approaches preparation—not just the flying, but the mindset, discipline, and personal routines that keep him sharp when the margins are thin and expectations are sky-high. It’s a reminder that world-class performance is built long before the crowd ever arrives.From there, we roll into Prop Wash, catching you up on the latest industry news and notes you should know as the season starts to come into focus.But the heart of this episode belongs to Dewey Larson of Dream Big.After a tragic accident while leaving International Council of Air Shows, Dewey shares an update on the painstaking restoration of his mobile F-18 cockpit museum—an exhibit that, for countless kids and families, serves as their very first touchpoint with military aviation, and often aviation itself.The airshow community stepped up in a big way to help get Dewey back on the road, and this conversation makes it clear why. This isn’t just about hardware—it’s about access, inspiration, and opening the door to wonder for the next generation.And just when you think the story couldn’t get any better, Dewey drops a big announcement involving the ICAS Foundation, tied directly to paying that generosity forward—if there’s any funding left over.Editor’s Note:We keep it light, but make no mistake—this episode is about heart. It’s about an industry that rallies when one of its own gets knocked down, and understands that sometimes the most important part of an airshow doesn’t happen in the sky, but at eye level, one curious kid at a time.Training. News. Recovery. Giving back.This is one you don’t want to miss.#ShowCenterPodcast #AirshowLife #AirshowFamily #AviationInspires #DreamBig #WhyWeFly #ICAS #RedBullAirRace #NextGeneration #MilitaryAviation #airshowpodcast

SHOW CENTER The Airshow Podcast – 2025 Season Wrap-Up
SHOW CENTER The Airshow Podcast - The 2025 airshow season is in the books—and what a ride it’s been. The U.S. Government Shutdown threw a wet blanket over the circuit, grounding military participation and leaving producers scrambling. But, as always, this industry found a way.In this episode, we look back at how shows turned setbacks into standouts. From creative new programming and local partnerships to inventive ways of keeping fans engaged, airshows across the country proved that when the government can’t show up, the rest of us still do.We’ll also share some fresh ideas to help insulate the industry next time politics gets in the way—because resilience isn’t just a buzzword in airshows; it’s a way of life.And speaking of what’s next—the ICAS Annual Convention in Las Vegas is just weeks away. We’ll be recording onsite, just outside the main hall, with open mics and a few extra chairs. Swing by, say hello, and join the conversation.Another season in the books. Another reminder that no matter the challenge, this community always finds a way to fly.See you in Vegas!
