Utah Beach D-Day celebration

Thu May 27, 2004 12:34 pm

A C-17 will lead a four aircraft formation over Utah Beach as part of a D-Day anniversary celebration.

Anyone know of any other plans? I know there will be lots of ground vehicles participating.

I am scheduled to be on a tour of the Juno beech centre at 10 AM on June 5. Anything flying that day? I will be in the area on June 6 so I will be looking up. :wink:

I give the local Photo Lab much business. I was in there the other day and told them they could take the next two weeks off or get their "other" work done since I was going on vacation. They had a good laugh over that one. I also warned them though when the two weeks is up I'll be bringining in some film for processing and scans!

I am looking forward to the trip. It also includes my first visit to Duxford, and I will be hooking up with Cees and Harm-Jan in Amsterdam.

I am not a big beer drinker, but do have a few from time-to-time. I thought I should try to make the extra effort to find a pub serving Spitfire. Those were fantastic ads they have, so I am hoping the brew measures up.
