Hi,
I originally posted this on the flypast forums, but it was suggested that I try here as well.

I will be going on holiday to the Rockys in the USA at the weekend. I was woundering if anybody knew of anything aviation related to do out there. I will be travelling with my brother, and we have a car, and no itinery to speak of yet so I am open to suggestions.

We are starting in Denver, and will probably loop down to the north rim of the grand canyon, and then up towards Utah, so anything aviation related in these areas can be considered.

Thanks in advance

Jonathan

Jonathan,

You need to go to the "High Country Warbirds Fly-In" at Valle, Arizona on June 26-27:

Otherwise, just go there for the excellent museum! It is right on the way to the Grand Canyon from Williams.

If in the neighborhood you should check out the museum at Hill Airforce base located just north of Salt Lake City,Utah.They have a very impressive collection and is well worth seeing...........Tim............. :shock:
