Missed the 2-4PM events? Encore! 6-8PM
Patterned after the real life Thunder over Louisville event, our fabulous virtual Pyromusical fireworks takes place in a 6x6 with a full scale bridge spanning the Ohio river. It is brought to you by Neytiri, owner/operator of PyroVR. These are technically accurate fireworks, the likes never seen before. Once again Neytiri has been working on new custom effects and techniques that will be debuted for this event. Bigger shells, bigger BOOMs!

SPECIAL: After the fireworks we invite people to fly the F/A-18 jetcraft. Read the placard, mind the landing gear and keep looking up!

NOTE: the doors may close at 7PM grid time to reduce disturbances caused by inbound Hypergrid hops. Please show up early.

Missed the 2-4PM event? Encore! 6-8PM
The Blue Angels have returned to the metaverse bringing their virtual air show to DiscoveryGrid, and this time they are flying the F/A-18 Super Hornet fighter jets, powered by custom physical flight and SFX scripts, made by InMotion (Balpien Hammerer). These aircraft will astound you as their pilots perform high precision breathtaking acrobatic flight maneuvers and thunderous flyovers to continue the birthday celebrations.

If you missed the DJ party, please arrive BEFORE 7PM because the doors may close if more than 40 people are in the region. Hypergrid hops perturb the balance.

Discovery Flight School
Where: Earhart Regional Airport
When: 4 years ago [16 Jul 2020 13:00 SLT]

If you attended the July 4th Discovery Grid airshow, you saw high performance F/A-18 Hornet fighter jets doing formation flying. Now you too can fly the civilian version of these jets. But, if that seems daunting, we are offering weekly flight training and you-fly-em tours of the nearby regions in the grid. Over 95% of private regions are connected by the community oceans, so these tours can be a lot of fun. No ban lines, just the expanse.
