Wild West Air Fest Cars and Planes


Wild West Aircrafts:
An exciting part of the Wild West Air Fest is that you can be apart of the action and fly in the Douglas C-47 Skytrain, or Dakota, a military transport aircraft that was developed from the Douglas DC-3 airliner. It was used extensively by the Allies during World War II and remained in front line operations through the 1950s with a few remaining in operation to this day.  C-47 and many other plane rides are available!
