M0101/05 - AEROBATICS WILL TAKE PLACE DMSTN HI SPD ACFT W/I 5NM RAD INS FL/180, EFF: 201530/1615 1830/1930 2200/2300Z SFC 180 20 JUN 15:30 UNTIL 20 JUN 23:00

15:30 zulu = 8:30AM local
23:00 zulu = 4PM local

If I read it correctly, there are 3 periods of activity
15:30 to 16:15 zulu = 8:30AM to 9:15PM
18:30 to 19:30 zulu = 11:30AM to 12:30PM
22:00 to 23:00 zulu = 3PM to 4PM

If FL/180 means 18000, you are not going to see much, unless that is their ceiling. [This is where we need Jim Bob's or a pilots interpretation of the notam.]

If you like to scan, the audio during training is different that during a show. Sometimes they critic their flying, each pilot giving his/her 2 cents to the boss. I don't think they sing that goofy song before they take off.
