The Sound of Speed Airshow is this weekend at Rosecrans Memorial Airport in St. Joseph. You can expect intermittent traffic jams along U.S. Highway 36 and Airport Road, a lot of aircraft activity overhead, and a few sonic booms each day.

A dozen or more static aircraft will be on display on the ground, including the A-10 “Warthog” fighter jet, The Northrop T-38 Talon supersonic jet trainer and the AH-64 Apache helicopter.

The show will include performances both days from about twenty acts, including the Shockwave Jet Truck and some aerobatics from the Shetterly Squadron and the Franklin Airshow’s “Dracula.”

A concert Saturday will feature American Idol winner David Cook and country singer Danika Portz.
