Howdy everyone! This is just a reminder to everyone (for planning purposes) that the official unveiling of the CAF's B-24A (Ol' 927...formally known as Diamond Lil) after it's reconfiguration into a bomber is going to be at the Gathering of Twin Tails, on May 12, 2007, at the Midland International Airport (MAF), CAF main hangar.

ANY twin tailed aircraft is invited and encouraged to come. We will be having the typical rot-gut burgers and dogs, along with moderately cool soft drinks. :lol:

The airplanes should start taxiing in around 8 a.m. and the unveiling will be at 10 a.m. There will also be the opportunity to purchase rides in various aircraft throughout the day (depending on weather and which aircraft attend).

So come on out and be among the first to see Ol' 927 after her new makeover!

To help us with our planning, if you are planning on attending, please RSVP me at retroaviation@aol.com .
