Took my first warbird ride in 909, 6 years ago at Valpo. Rode Witchcraft a couple years later. Wanted to fly in Tondelayo
but was taken from the tour for a couple years, I think it was in Calif., but glad it's back. Did fly in a B-25 but was in Panchito at Reading in 2012. Couldn't get to the airport as was working overtime , but they did fly over the lake and was able to see them. Heard the radial engines from inside the shop and ran outside to see them. My sister heard the engines , and worked for TWA when they were phasing out the propliners and her first thought when she heard the engines was , who is flying a Connie over my house.
