The Wings Over The Rockies Air & Space Museum is filled with more than 50 military aircraft, space and rocketry exhibits, plus realistic flight simulators, all housed in a former Air Force hanger. On Sunday, September 20, 2026, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., admission is FREE to all, part of the SCFD Free Day program.
Not only can you walk alongside majestic former warbirds, a ¾ scale X-Wing Starfighter and a Vietnam era Huey helicopter but you can bring out your inner pilot in unforgettable simulator experiences and immerse yourself in aviation history.
Don’t miss this opportunity to check out the newest aircraft in the collection, the AV-8B Harrier II+.
This impressive aircraft can can “jump” off the ground in a short take off run or can even take off and land vertically, and this Harrier has the 3rd highest number of combat hours of any Harrier.
Step into the world of aviation and space exploration as you get an up-close look at the Museum’s Determined to Fly temporary exhibit, where you can learn all about the bold minds who helped shape the future of aviation and space exploration.
From the Wright Brothers’ first powered flight to the Apollo Moon missions, each breakthrough built upon the last, transforming fragile flying machines into supersonic air and spacecraft capable of anything.
Admission is normally $19.95 for adults, $15.95 for seniors, active military and veterans and $12.95 for kids ages 4 to 16, so this is quite the savings!
