More helpful hints

Designate a driver if you plan on drinking in the only beer-vending areas of the event: Thunder Chow Wagon at Waterfront Park, West Belvedere, North Great Lawn and BoomTown at Tumbleweed Southwest Grill.
Identify a location to regroup should you lose any in your party.
Bring your patience. This is not an event for the crowd-shy. Remember the event is for fun and try to have some!
Don't count on cell phones working 100% that day. With that many folks and signals service can be unreliable.
Know what your children are wearing and carry a photo of them with you. Make sure they know to find a police officer and know your phone number and address.
If you plan to bring young children (toddlers and infants) to the venue, bring ear plugs for them. The loud noises from the air show and fireworks frighten some children. Plus, it will help protect their tiny ear drums.
Entertain restless children in the kid's interactive areas or playgrounds in Waterfront Park.
Thunder Wear (official Thunder merchandise) can be found in 9 locations. If you plan on buying a poster, wait until later in the day to keep it from getting damaged.
Bring a radio. You can tune into the command center and complete air show commentary on Lite 106.9 WVEZ.
NO-NO'S - Keep glass bottles, grills, tents, stakes, pennant lines, caution tape, alcohol, skates and pets at home.
