Wings Over Gillespie

Wings Over Gillespie is a primarily an air show usually held the first weekend in June at Gillespie Field in El Cajon, California. It is conducted by the San Diego wing (Air Group One) of the Commemorative Air Force. It is a regular stop for many "warbirds" that make the airshow circuit each year, including the CAF's B-17 Flying Fortress Sentimental Journey. In recent years the air show has shown a larger number of flying demonstrations at what was at one time a mostly static air show.

Gillespie Field is also the home of the San Diego Air & Space Museum's (formerly known as the San Diego Aerospace Museum) Restoration Department and auxiliary display of their extended collection of military aircraft and Atlas ICBM missile.
