Part
of the fun of the whole airshow experience is to watch the people. The
magic and wonder of the children looking at the old airplanes, the
sparkle of pride in the eye of a veteran and a whole hosts of other
things help keep the shows interesting.

at a B-25 Mitchell on the ramp.
The crowds were heavy again this
year. This is a good sign that the economy hasn't dampened the airshow
spirit.
