A heads up from the organizers on their Facebook page:
Thank you to everyone who has already bought passes and chalet tickets!

We have recently been seeing fake tickets and illegitimate sites selling passes. The ONLY place to purchase passes is straight from the Airshow site with our ticket vendor EventStar.

Please be cautious when purchasing online - only passes and tickets from the airshow website will be accepted.
