Overview

What ABG knows about this game

In Air Show, players create and manage collections and museums of historic aircraft, which are kept in perfect flying condition for display to the public to relive the history of aviation. The aircraft represented in the game are all real, and they are all aircraft either currently part of collections and museums in different countries or on the antiques market for sale. With Air Show you can create, develop, maintain and manage an impressive collection of valuable historical aircraft in flight status. You will participate in auctions, trying to acquire more aircraft for your collection in fierce competition with other collectors. Managing your resources, you can develop your base airport by acquiring new buildings and hiring professional experts to improve your exhibitions. Perform spectacular air shows with your planes, earning the prestige and money you'll need to continue your progress. At the end of the game, the player who has the largest and best managed collection – and who has made the best air shows – will be the Air Show winner.
