🛩️ TRIVIA: The History Flying Over COS

The Pikes Peak Regional Airshow returns this weekend, Sept 19–20, bringing vintage warplanes, modern military aircraft, and a special firefighting demonstration to the south end of Colorado Springs Airport.

🇺🇸 In a community connected to the Air Force Academy, Peterson Space Force Base, Fort Carson, veterans, and aviation families, the show offers a chance to recognize the pilots, crews, mechanics, and families who make flight possible.

🔥 TRIVIA: Which aircraft will demonstrate its Modular Airborne Fire Fighting System at the 2026 airshow?

Answer: The C-130.

🏛️ The event also helps preserve local history. Proceeds support the National Museum of World War II Aviation, Peterson Air and Space Museum, and the 4th Infantry Division Museum at Fort Carson. In 2024, the airshow donated $75,000—$25,000 to each museum.

Whether you know every aircraft or simply love the sound of engines overhead, there is something for everyone. Did you get tickets for the show yet?

🎨 What if art could help train better doctors?

🩺 Medical students at the University of Colorado are using painting, pottery, poetry and sculpture to sharpen observation, process difficult patient experiences and reduce stress.

The idea is simple: when students slow down to study a work of art, they learn to question first impressions. That same skill helps them listen to patients, notice subtle details and avoid quick assumptions.

Medicine needs science. But good care also requires curiosity, reflection and human connection.

💬 Do you think art and the humanities should be a required part of medical training? Why or why not?

🏙️ Colorado Springs faces a big decision: Should the city approve the large AI data center at the former Intel facility?

🔊 Opponents staged a nearly 90-decibel protest to highlight concerns about noise, water use, electricity demand, and nearby neighborhoods. Developer Raeden disputes those noise concerns, saying its study puts operating noise at 41 decibels, below the city’s 55-decibel limit.

Colorado Springs City Council will hear two appeals this Thurs, Sept 17, starting at 9 am at the Pikes Peak Center for the Performing Arts, 190 S. Cascade Ave.

🤔 With strong opinions on both sides, it will be a long meeting. The final decision could shape how Colorado Springs balances AI development, infrastructure demands, and neighborhood quality of life for years to come. Thoughts?
