The 2nd Annual Airshow has already arrived. Eagle Eye Eddie’s twin brother, Hawkeye Harry, is making the trip to the farm to surprise his brother. If you are at least level 12, you will see a pop-up inviting you to the Annual Airshow Event.



The event started on Wednesday, April 13, and will have 2 stages; each 6 days in length. Complete the Annual Airshow, and compete with farmers all over the world for the top leaderboard position. Quests will reward you with Pilot Points, so be sure to complete as many as you can.

Start off the quests by visiting the Event Green located behind Eagle Eye Eddie's airplane. It will be dressed with a searchlight,  an audience bleacher , a flight control tower, and a podium for the winners of the airshow. You will see 3 orders at a time which can either be harvested (crops), or crafted. Each item requested will have a different timer that will allow you to get the items needed.

Pilot Wings Boost:


There will be two types of Boost during the Annual Airshow event: the Silver Pilot Wing, and the Gold Pilot Wing. Use these boosts to increase the amount of Pilot points by 50% using coins, or by 100% using keys.  There will be a timer once a boost is activated and a short cool-down period when you can buy another boost. Boosts will last 1 hour, and you can only select one boost at a time. (prices subject to change based on level)

Leaderboard:


The second tab will show you the leaderboard that you are in. Not everyone you know will be in the same leaderboard. The leaderboard tab will tell you which prize category you are currently in (Gold, Silver, or Bronze). You can also see how you rank among your friends. To be fair to all, you will be in a leaderboard with others that are similar level. While viewing the leaderboard, you will now be able to see which Farmers are using boosts.

Rewards:


You will see 3 different rewards that are broken into tiers. Hawkeye Harry will permanently stay in your farm if you are among the top (gold) position of your leaderboard on the final day of the 1st or 2nd stage. If you are in the middle position (Silver Cup level) you will earn *2 Gold Stamps, 2 Padlocks & 10 Keys, and if you are casually playing and land on the lowest tier (bronze) you will earn *1 Silver Stamp, 1 Padlock & 5 Golden Gloves!

*1st and 2nd stage rewards are the same for silver and bronze tiers.

There are 2 chances to win the prizes. **The second stage will repeat the rewards shown below, allowing you to get another shot at Hawkeye Harry. If you get him on first stage of the Airshow, Hawkeye Harry will become a decorated pilot if you land on the top spot of the second stage. Decorated Hawkeye Harry will be an upgrade to the existing Hawkeye Harry, not a second Farm Hand. The upgraded Hawkeye Harry will have keener senses and will give you better chances for Event items in select future events.

Note:You will only be able to earn one of the rewards, not all three! The higher you get on the leaderboard will determine what reward you will receive on the last day of the event! To earn the Decorated Hawkeye Harry, you have to place in the Top 5 of your Leaderboard for both stages of the Event.

Temporary Place of Interest: Airshow Hangar:


The Airshow Hangar is a temporary attraction that will stay in your farm until the event is over. In order to explore this aviation attraction, players will need to craft Mechanic's Munchies at the Stovetop. A trip inside the Hangar can accommodate 4 Farm Hands, and will last an hour.

  1. Thanks again for all these updates. Question.. Do you have to be in top 5 for both stages or just the 1st or the 2nd?

    1. Hi Natasha, you probably found out by now(apologies for being late) there are two parts to the event. The first part will gain you the permanent helper if you place in the top 5. Then the second part will commence where if you did not place in the top 5 then you can have another try to win him. Now if you won in the first half then you can try to upgrade your helper by placing in the top 5 once again. The upgraded helpers bring in extra rewards when exploring.
