The annual [url="http://www.houstonwing.org"]Houston Squadron[/url] ([url="http://www.commemorativeairforce.org/"]branch of CAF[/url]) open house will be next month, this April 20/21.
At [url="http://www.airnav.com/airport/KIWS"]West Houston Airport (KIWS)[/url].

Wing aircraft include
  • Lockheed C-60A "Lodestar"
  • North American AT-6 "Texan"
  • Consolidated-Vultee BT-13 "Valiant"
  • Naval Aircraft Factory N3N "Yellow Peril"
  • Fairchild PT-19A "Cornell"
  • North American L-17 Navion (major restoration project)
20+ aircraft are expected, including the CAF's B-17 "Texas Raiders", a P-51 Mustang, T-28 Trojan (two!), Yak 52 (three!), and many trainers, observation aircraft and probably at least one aircraft from the CAF Tora Tora Tora team.


We have food, drinks, and lots of jun..., er, great stuff to buy! ;)

If you have a "Warbird" (any era and nation military aircraft),
we invite you to fly her in! (we might have discounted gas depending on availability).
Please contact John Cotter @ 1 (440) 915 5917 ASAP to make arrangements (mention Joe invited)

Welcome extended for anyone else flying in (please post if you are considering!),
golf cart and bottled water to pick you up from FBO terminal (NOTE, buy gas from terminal to avoid possible ramp fee).
We might have space on along taxiway D, however it is also planned for auto parking.

Post here if you plan to fly in, and bring your cameras and some donation cash. :)
Would like to know who is coming so we are aware of your visit.
