Is anyone else having trouble with today's 24 hour buy one get one free ticket sale? Whenever I enter the promo code I get an error message "promo code does not qualify".

No matter what combo I use, it won't work. I'm pretty sure it's on my end, though I tried two browsers (Firefox/IE) on two machines. The fellow wixer I'm going with is going to get my tickets for me, so I'm good.

Hmm .. The first two C-47's booked are in D-Day markings.

Is there a pattern developing here?

Either way, I will be there, and if I am lucky, it will be my daughters first airshow!

Need the YAM's C-47 to stay in those post-WWII USAF markings! But would not mind late 50's/early 60's orange day-glo bands added to the paint scheme...

Always nice to see the Hueys and the Cobras!

Would love to see Cavanaugh's Caribou, the C-123 "Thunder Pig" and the BAHF C-54 join all the C-47's too....

I think you're getting this group mixed up with the Army Airborne Group.
Here is the AHP's website: http://www.airborneheritageplatoon.com
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Airborne-Heritage-Platoon-197600043616607/

The Airborne Heritage Platoon is a parachute demonstration team that specializes in military, static line parachute jumps at air shows, commemorative events and veteran’s reunions. We do this to Honor US Airborne Veterans of all eras. The team consists of experienced static line parachutists, jumpmasters and parachute riggers.
The Airborne Heritage Platoon has partnered with the Commemorative Air Force (CAF) and other organizations that own and operate vintage military aircraft. Together, we help further the mission of keeping these aircraft flying, honoring our Veterans and sharing this unique military history with the public. We specialize in depicting all eras of combat jumps by wearing period appropriate uniforms, equipment and weapons, while using modern U.S. Military round parachutes for all demonstration jumps.

If you are not a qualified military static line parachutist but would still like to participate in the team, feel free to contact us to find out how you may attend one of our jump school trainings.
