Sounds like this would be a real time. Wish I lived nearby. They are very accomodating for sure, based upon the listed of permitted items. Everything to ensure a good time is permitted, and most of the things that would likely make for a bad time are prohibited

Holloman's shows have always been the best. They are very professional and everything is planned out great. I prefer to go to it even better than the yearly local Amigo air show. The Amigo air show charges a ton and the seating bites. The only bad thing about Holloman is that it's only put on every other year or so but it's worth the wait. Definitely plan to attend from El Paso.
