Cape Suzette Aerodrome

The name of the Cape Suzette Aerodrome, a popular landmark for fans of flying, may mislead some into thinking it is another one of the city's airports. Far from that — the Aerodrome is the closest spectators come to having a stadium for athletes and acrobats of the sky.

The grand coliseum of high-flying entertainment, Cape Suzette Aerodrome plays host to air circuses, stunt teams, and aerobatic troupes that tour the towns and territories of Usland. The routines done by these groups vary in content — new gimmicks are added all the time to keep the show fresh. Some feature wing-walking and formation flight; others specialize in intricate maneuvers and dares of physics; others run stunt scenarios with colored smoke and narrative commentary to heighten the drama. Despite the obvious danger in flying planes so close to thousands of people, safety is the prime concern — careful staging and meticulous choreography ensures that even the riskiest-looking maneuvers are just "part of the show."

Visiting air shows hold two or three shows daily, with matinee performances between. Some stay on extended engagements, but the majority of air circuses leave after a week for the next town on their tour circuit.
