The article about the Mustangs and Legends was very good and enjoyable to read (“Gathering of Mustangs and Legends, Where World War II airplanes and pilots met again,” Oct. 19 issue). I attended the air show and it was probably the best all-around air show I have visited in a long time. It was well organized and the weather was “air show perfect” …light winds and almost no clouds in the blue sky.
As a volunteer, I was assigned to a VIP chalet where the Tuskegee Airmen were gathered to watch the air show and eat sandwiches and snacks.
Attached is a photo of the Airmen as they were honored on the flatbed trailer that drove them down the flight line for the crowds to acknowledge their presence.
You do a fine job with GAN and I look forward to your next issue.
