The CAF
SoCal Wing hosted a special event to commemorate Pearl Harbor. Jim
Hinckley gave a great presentation about Pearl Harbor, including the
key players, tactics and methods. The Wing flew their authentic
Mitsubishi A6M3 Zero, one of only a handful around today in flyable
condition. The Wing's Grumman F6F Hellcat and F8F Bearcat also flew for
a formation that I don't think you will see anywhere else. Jason Somes
flew the Zero. Gary Barber flew the Hellcat and Steve Barber flew the
Bearcat. Three members of the Condor Squadron also flew some flyovers
for the event.
Jim had a nice crowd for the
presentation about Pearl Harbor.
