Narrative:

The kissimmee air show was in progress with a lot of attention on that area in the room and from the center as well as a northeast, southwest line of broken thunderstorm activity extending from the lakeland area over orlando international airport (mco) northeastward. This line was moving to the southeast affecting the mco caman departures so they were swampped at work. There had been a steady amount of departures since signing on position and several things taking place about the time small transport was in the handoff area. Daytona beach area control (dab) alerted me by call on the landline that small transport was in their area at this time. I believe the aircraft was about three mi in their area so I transferred communications over to dab. I believe some reasons I may have failed to hand this aircraft off to dab are: that area is not normally used, nor is it in the area of concentration on the display for this sector. (Most of this type traffic is worked by the satellite 'F' position.) the departure transiting that area are not a factor to this type traffic. Most of the traffic is on V-3 well east of that area or off mco to the south and east when on the south operation 30 mi from that area. Due to the WX, aircraft were climbing and turning slowly in my area so I was having to watch this closely as well as other traffic that deviated in and around my area particularly the arrivals coming in east of bairn. About the handoff time for small transport, the kissimmee air show was over so the military aerobatic flight popped up coming to mco creating several verbal coordination calls across and around the room for a clearance to the airport for them, as well as verbal alerts on conflicting traffic at mco final position.

Title: MCO CTLR FORGOT TO MAKE HDOF ON ACFT TO DAB APCH CTLR, ERRONEOUS PENETRATION OF AIRSPACE.

Narrative: THE KISSIMMEE AIR SHOW WAS IN PROGRESS WITH A LOT OF ATTN ON THAT AREA IN THE ROOM AND FROM THE CENTER AS WELL AS A NE, SW LINE OF BROKEN THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY EXTENDING FROM THE LAKELAND AREA OVER ORLANDO INTL ARPT (MCO) NORTHEASTWARD. THIS LINE WAS MOVING TO THE SE AFFECTING THE MCO CAMAN DEPARTURES SO THEY WERE SWAMPPED AT WORK. THERE HAD BEEN A STEADY AMOUNT OF DEPARTURES SINCE SIGNING ON POSITION AND SEVERAL THINGS TAKING PLACE ABOUT THE TIME SMT WAS IN THE HANDOFF AREA. DAYTONA BEACH AREA CONTROL (DAB) ALERTED ME BY CALL ON THE LANDLINE THAT SMT WAS IN THEIR AREA AT THIS TIME. I BELIEVE THE ACFT WAS ABOUT THREE MI IN THEIR AREA SO I TRANSFERRED COMMUNICATIONS OVER TO DAB. I BELIEVE SOME REASONS I MAY HAVE FAILED TO HAND THIS ACFT OFF TO DAB ARE: THAT AREA IS NOT NORMALLY USED, NOR IS IT IN THE AREA OF CONCENTRATION ON THE DISPLAY FOR THIS SECTOR. (MOST OF THIS TYPE TFC IS WORKED BY THE SATELLITE 'F' POSITION.) THE DEP TRANSITING THAT AREA ARE NOT A FACTOR TO THIS TYPE TFC. MOST OF THE TFC IS ON V-3 WELL E OF THAT AREA OR OFF MCO TO THE S AND E WHEN ON THE S OPERATION 30 MI FROM THAT AREA. DUE TO THE WX, ACFT WERE CLBING AND TURNING SLOWLY IN MY AREA SO I WAS HAVING TO WATCH THIS CLOSELY AS WELL AS OTHER TFC THAT DEVIATED IN AND AROUND MY AREA PARTICULARLY THE ARRIVALS COMING IN E OF BAIRN. ABOUT THE HANDOFF TIME FOR SMT, THE KISSIMMEE AIR SHOW WAS OVER SO THE MIL AEROBATIC FLT POPPED UP COMING TO MCO CREATING SEVERAL VERBAL COORDINATION CALLS ACROSS AND AROUND THE ROOM FOR A CLRNC TO THE ARPT FOR THEM, AS WELL AS VERBAL ALERTS ON CONFLICTING TFC AT MCO FINAL POSITION.
