Amigo Airsho
Weekend event draws thousands to Biggs Airfield

Red Barron Pizza Squadron performs eye-popping stunts in WWII era Stearman biplanes Sunday.

This year’s air show thrilled more than 50,000 spectators Saturday and Sunday. “We are extremely pleased with attendance,” said Alicia Aguilar, Amigo Airsho executive director. The strong attendance at the show was attributed to the good weather.

The crowd was treated to the Air Force Thunderbirds, other military aircraft, the jet powered truck – Shockwave, Red Baron Pizza Squadron and many others.
Aguilar was extremely pleased with the volunteers that made the show possible. “Without them we could not do this event.”
