The information in this guide used to come out of the annual Air Show Guide published in Monitoring Times. Unfortunately, Monitoring Times is no longer published. The list below is from previous years as well as some updates from the Milcom Monitoring Post
Even though Monitoring Times may no longer published, but you can still purchase Larry Van Horn's guildes for only $3.99. It contains all the Air show Freqs and information that you'll need.
Do you need a new scanner, check my list of new scanners at the bottom of this page for suggestions. Don't forget, W2LIE.net can program your radio for all the air show action!
More info on my live show feed can be found in the forums, at this thread.

DoD VHF Band
Is was reported in MT's March 2011 issue on Page 53 that the DoD uses 138.000 - 150.800 Mhz (minus the Amateur Radio area of 144-148 Mhz) with 12.5kHz spacing using Amplitude Modulation (AM). An airshow is a great place to discover frequencies in use in this range.
NY GUARD (Static Display at Airpower Museum) Some of these frequencies belong to a Military TRS in Orange County. P25 is in use on these frequencies.

** Also on the Nassau County EDACS System on Talk Groups 14-034, 14-036, 14-037, 15-107 **
You may also want to check out my FRS/GMRS/MURS page. Those frequencies are reported to be in use at Airshows
Finally, there may be some activity on LPRS (Low Power Radio Services) frequencies. I'm not going to paste all 260 frequencies here, but it has been reported that the Thunderbirds use these frequencies, and I would think maybe some other military jets have LPRS systems. Here is a link with all the info you'll need.
Are you looking for a new scanner to take to the Air Show??
