Pike's Peak Regional Airshow

The boys and I spent a couple hours at the Colorado Springs Airport today checking out the annual Pike's Peak Regional Airshow. It was pretty cool and the boys got to learn a little bit about WWII aviation. They had live fly overs of a number of restored aircraft, such as the P51, the Bearcat, and the Japanese Zero (there were others, I just can't remember). They also got to sit in the cockpit of a Cessna 172, which was really cool. Nehemiah was very interested when I explained the method for exiting the Cessna when skydiving, which involves hanging from the wingstrut, letting your legs hang, and then letting go! In the end, we got rained out and Micah tripped crossing the road and scuffed his knee, but it was a good time had by all.
