Mt. Evans Room at Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport

Interested citizens are invited to a meeting concerning the update of Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport’s Master Plan. The meeting will be held Thursday, October 8th from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. in the Mt. Evans Meeting Room at Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport 11755 Airport Way, Broomfield, Colorado.

The primary topic of discussion will be the Airport’s long-term development recommendations. The public will have the opportunity to view the alternatives, ask questions, and provide input.

Rocky Mountain Metro Airport has decided to switch things up a bit this year! After several years of hosting our Open House, we have decided to take a step back and allow Colorado Sport Aviation (CSA) to step up to the plate. CSA will be hosting The Colorado Sport International Air Show along with The Rocky Mountain Regional Fly-In for their first appearance at Metro Airport on Saturday, August 22nd and Sunday, August 23rd. CSA is an all-volunteer 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation dedicated to serve and promote "recreational aviation" through the hosting of an annual Air Show and Regional Fly-In. Therefore tickets for adults will be $15, children 6 -13 years will be $13 and children 5 and under are free.

The Colorado Sport International Air Show, formerly known as the Front Range Air Show, will include several different performances such as glider flight demonstrations, a parachute jumper, a few solo aerobatic performances, mass formation demonstrations, some fly bys and F-16 flight demonstrations. Not only will these exciting performances go on both Saturday and Sunday, 1:00 PM through 4:00 PM, but there will also be a special Twilight Air Show, Saturday night with limited performances starting at 7:00 PM.

Along with the amazing performances from the Colorado Sport International Air Show, the Rocky Mountain Regional Fly-In will be celebrating their 30th year. CSA will be hosting a family oriented weekend event attended by up to 400 aircraft from around the country with a total of approximately 25,000 people. During the 2-day event there will be over 20 educational and safety forums along with building workshops for adults and youth to help spark a new interest in learning and aviation. Various food vendors will be onsite providing a wide range of meals and sundries.

“Metro Airport is happy to partner with CSA to bring this great event into the Denver metro area and help expand its future potential. We are pleased to host an event which not only serves pilots and the aviation industry throughout the Rocky Mountain region, but also provides family fun and enjoyment for our neighbors in the surrounding communities and across the State" - Kenneth Maenpa, Airport Manager.

The Collings Foundation is bringing the Wings of Freedom Tour, which showcases three fully restored WWII Bomber Aircraft, to Metro Airport on July 1st to the 3rd. These aircraft are the 1944 vintage Consolidate B-24J Liberator, the Boeing B-17G Flying Fortress “Nine-O-Nine” and the TP-51C “Betty Jane” Mustang.

The "Wings of Freedom Tour" has two goals: to honor our veterans--recognizing their sacrifices so we may enjoy our freedom; and to educate the visitors, especially younger Americans, about our national history and heritage. The Foundation encourages people to tour the planes, talk to the veterans who come to visit the aircraft, and participate in a "flight experience”. In nineteen years, the tour has made more than 2,172 visits to airports across the United States and Alaska. While the exact number of visitors is difficult to gauge, it is estimated that between 3 and 4 million people see these warbirds annually.

Walk through tours of all the aircraft are $12 for adults and $6 for children 12 and under. WWII Veterans get into the ground tours at no charge. Flight experiences donation are $425 per person aboard the B-17 or B-24. Flight training in the P-51 is $2200 for a half hour flight and $3200 for a full hour. All participants will get the chance to feel what it was like to fly one of the most legendary fighters of WWII.
