LIVE SHOW! Virtual Aerobatic Team "Berkuts"

The Show
In preparation of the Virtual Festival of Aerobatic Teams and as an official announcement of our new Virtual Aerobatic Team, we would like to present the VAT “Berkuts” with a live display.
The show will take place on Saturday and Sunday, the 5th and 6th of July.
Everyone is welcome to our server and watch! (LockOn FC 1.12 Required)

We plan to do two displays each day with a capacity of 30 spectators for every show.
This is only a limited amount with the obvious reason to reduce the chances of server instabilities.
If you miss a seat there is no need to worry, we will do a total of 4 displays during the weekend and we will provide tracks afterwards.

During the show, there will be a camera helicopter airborne.
You could use this helicopter to make interesting views. Go to this helicopter with the F2 key and you will be able to easily switch between aircraft with F5. You can zoom in and out using the CTR+/ and CTR+* keys and change position with the up-down-left-right arrows on the numpad.
To make the ultimate "Berkuts" experience, also download our Berkuts Skin!

Airshow Importance:
- It is strictly forbidden to leave and/or join the mission during the show! This will couse lag and could ruin our airshow.
- It is not allowed to use chat as long as the wheels are off the ground.
- Its strictly forbidden to take screenshots or run fraps during the show. If you want to take screenshots or run fraps, track the flight with pressing CTR+R instead of pressing FLY so that you can do this after the show. Our server track will also be provided after the show.
- Leave and join our Ventrilo only when neccecarily.


VAT “Berkuts” Server and Ventrilo2.3.0
For spectators it is required to join our Ventrilo first. The server password will be provided through our Ventrilo.
To increase capabilities, the VAT “Berkuts” DO NOT USE Ventrilo 3.0.1 but Ventrilo 2.3.0!
If you have the newest Ventrilo3.0.1, there is no need to uninstall because you can easily run both copies next to each other.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ventrilo 3.0.1 with 2.3.0 inserted
- Install Ventrilo 3.0.1 (download)
- Place Ventrilo2.3.0.exe in the Ventrilo3.0.1 folder (Ventrilo2.3.0.rar)
Now you can launch both versions of Ventrilo. Create shortcuts on your desktop or start menu for easy switching.

If the first variant is not working for you, try this:

Ventrilo 3.0.1 & 2.3.0 installed both
- Install Ventrilo 3.0.1 (download)
- Rename Ventrilo 3.0.1 folder to whatever.
- Uninstall Ventrilo 3.0.1.
- Install 2.3.0 (download)
Now you can launch both versions of Ventrilo. Create shortcuts on your desktop or start menu for easy switching.

@Bekuts, great show!!! Beautiful maneuvers, coreography and execution... only thing IMHO the show was missing was some "punch" (i.e. quicker turnarounds, rejoins etc.). Having said that, these screenshots doesn't do the flying justice. You guys did an amazing job! :D

P.S. I have these in high res if anyone wants them. ;)

Another amazing display. 4 shows in two days is impressive and you dealt with the issues when needed to seamlessly. As always a few things here and there, but overall you made us all proud to watch! :D :D :D

~S!

Here are some of the new passes for the day, and big thumbs up for adapting on the 5-ship Box formation!
