Hello All,
Brand new here. My name is Andrew Pomeroy, I work in the field of Airport Management and my passion has always been Warbirds. I've been flying for almost 20 years and about four years ago bought my first airplane, A 1974 Cessna 150L. It's been a great first airplane, and with the cost of AVGas these days, my planned upgrade to a CJ6 will have to wait a little while.
My goal (Dream?) would be to get hooked up with an Aviation Museum and pilot historic warbirds on tours and at airshows. Ultimately I'd like to get my B-25 type rating to close the loop and fly the same plane that brought my gradfather home safe after so many missions in the South Pacific with the 500th Bomber Squadron in WWII. I'd also love to race at Reno.
To date I've logged time in the following "Warbirds" L-4, Grumman G21A Goose, Yak 52, Nanchang CJ-6, and the crowning jule of my logbook to date - 1 Hr Duel Instruction B-25J from the left Seat

Sounds like I've found the right place for networking Warbirds!
P.S. - I'm hosting this years 500th Bomb Squadron Reunion (The Rough Raiders) here in Maine this September. I'm planning an old USO Style Hangar Dance for the Guys and need Warbirds for static display to give it that WWII Hangar Feel (to go along with the Glen Miller and Tommy Music) These guys flew B-25s so if there is a B-25 in the North East the first week of September I'd love to talk to you!
