You're in Greeley as well? I'm a college student at UNC; I don't own an airplane, nor do I fly one, but I am an avid enthusiast as a result of my Grandfather who flew with the 96th BG in WWII. Great to see someone else in town! Perhaps we can join for lunch sometime and talk warbirds...closest i've gotten to flying one was a little stick time on my uncle's T-34 when I was 10. Spent many an hour inside parked B-17's though!

the 96th Bomb Group (H) spent most of the war at Snetterton Heath.
Fourteen miles from where I grew up.
These days the old airfield is a motor racing circuit.
There is very nice memorial window in the local church commemorating the 96th.
Cheers
