Take a walk through the C-130 Military aircraft or book a ride on one of the vintage aircraft offering rides!

Special guest Warbird for 2018 was the TBM Avenger. This Navy aircraft helped turn the tide of WWII in the Pacific. The Avenger was capable of carrying a 2000 lb bomb, had unique folding wings, was launched most often from the deck of a Naval Aircraft Carrier and was the largest single engine bomber aircraft in the war. This particular aircraft is the first aircraft to be place on the Colorado National Register of Historic Properties, was the lead aircraft in the formation that flew over Queen Elizabeth’s coronation and appeared in Steven Spielberg’s movie “Close Encounters of the Third Kind”. The Commemorative Air Force Rocky Mountain Wing is proud to present this living piece of history and will be giving rides, for a fee, throughout the day on Saturday.
