===Planning=== "Barnstorming season" ran from early spring until after the harvest and county fairs in the fall. Most barnstorming shows started with a pilot, or team of pilots flying over a small rural town to attract local attention. They would then land at a local farm (hence the term "barnstorming") and negotiate for the use of a field as a temporary runway from which to stage an air show and offer airplane rides. After obtaining a base of operation, the pilot or group of aviators would "buzz" the village and drop [[Flyer (pamphlet)|flyers]].<ref name=pbs/> In some towns the arrival of a barnstormer or an aerial troupe would lead to a town-wide shutdown as people attended the show.
