The annual open house at Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport (formerly Jeffco Airport) is this weekend.

Looks to be bigger than ever this year, with explosions and a rocket truck (hopefully unrelated!)

Looks like a good time. Kids pricing @ 15 bucks is going to hurt.

Looks like that'll be a good show. I love those Wacos in the video, and that 16 pass with the burner on was HAWT!

When the Springs airshow is going on we just pull lawn chairs out in front of our hangar. Shade, fridge for drinks, no porta-potties- fantastic!

My wife and I just drove down Wadsworth right near the airport around 4:45pm and saw what appeared to be an F-16 (sorry can't be sure, definitely a fighter) circling then come in for a landing. It was a beautiful thing.
