Acapulco Air Show

With tens of millions of spectators attenging air shows each year, the air show industry represents one of the very largest, if not the largest, outdoor professional sports in North America. And it's no wonder, as the shows themselves deliver entertainment value at a modest cost for families the likes of which can't be found anywhere else, at any price. From supersonic-speed military jets to gravity-defying aerobatic acts to rocket-propelled trucks, parachutists, and a host of on-the-ground displays and activities, a day at an air show yields memories that truly last a lifetime. Indeed, air shows have become anchor events within the calendars of local communities coast to coast.
