Fourty-four years old and flying today. (no kidding)
We rode in this 1923 Ford Model T
Bill said he doesn't drive this car everyday. He take the car out for touring group.
He said it took him about 2 hrs to get here from Joliet. It only go about 20 to 35 mph.
This is Commemorative Air Force 1945 C-47 Black Sparrow Lead Ship with the 302nd Troop Carrier Squadron on D-Day
The original BLACK SPARROW flew in every major Airborne Operation from Normandy to the Drop Across the Rhine River into Germany, ending the war flying supplies to Gen. Patton's Third Army.
They allowed people inside the plane.. even give a ride to fly around here.
