EAA's Aluminum Overcast should be there doing rides this weekend. No idea about the other birds... Hmmm

I know there is a show in Lancaster PA this weekend, but that is a bit far from Trenton.

Yeah, Aluminum Overcast was spotted by me and other members of my Military Vehicle Club while we were trail riding around Lambertville-Ringoes-Sergeantsville area.

We had 3 WWII Jeeps, 2 M-151's, a 1956 CJ-5, A 1979 CUCV, and a 5 ton, barreling through trails and gravel roads. We stopped for a break and I heard it, then we all saw AO go right over us. After that we had a few sightings as she conducted her flights.

Aluminum Overcast was here this last weekend, and there was also 4 T-28 Trojans there as well. I saw all four of them taxi out at the same time. A guy over at Princeton Airport owns a T-6 and comes over to TTN about once a week.
Didn't know there were so many WIXers in the Trenton area. Maybe we should have a BBQ and talk warbirds.
