The pleasure is mine. FWIW, the way festival is compiled here on Debian
by default, is with a TAB completion. For a quick start (rather than
going through the sources), one can do

festival> (<TAB!>

and this lists all the global symbols!

Also you can do things like
festival> (doc SayText)
"(SayText TEXT)
TEXT, a string, is rendered as speech."

And this is what I did for voice selection:
festival>
(define (say-all t)
  (mapcar (lambda (v) (voice.select v)
                      (SayText t))
          (voice.list) ))

festival>
(say-all "Princeton traffic, this is Cessna 6 1 0 3 Quebec, base to final,
runway 2 8, at Princeton.")

(Technical info ends here, personal impressions only await you below).

The "don" voice sounds like the coolest. I mean, if a busy controller
heard it with a VFR request, he'd have the best chances of being serviced
:)

My PC has the crappy i810 on-board with no mix capabilities. I haven't
tried that ALSA mixer module somebody has mentioned earlier (apparently
it's not in by default or requires some configs), but I have a
standalone laptop dedicated for the festival+pigeond map (and this lets me
run fgfs fullscreen!) It's a pity that the CH yoke/pedals that I had for
some time had to be given back to the original owner though (no more
low-level bo105 maneuvering flight for me *sigh*)...
