It has been a long time since the AAA/APM web site has been
updated and I am certain that those who are regular visitors to this
web page have been disappointed and discouraged by that lack of
timely updates, as well as other problems with the web site.
I will not go into to the reasons why this has been the
case as excuses will not solve these problems. However I am here
to let you know that hopefully we have turned an important corner
to not only keep the web site updated, in a more timely manner,
but also to let you know that a complete redesign of the web site
is on it's way in the not to distant future. This project is being
spearheaded by our web master Aaron Klugherz with help from well
known antique airplane collector Russell Williams. With their
experience and foresight we look forward to the new and improved
AAA/APM web site.
In the mean time please enjoy this update in the form of a video/slideshow
presentation of the planes, people and events that took place
during the very successful AAA/APM National Fly-in over this past
Labor Day weekend. We were blessed with perfect weather during the
course of the fly-in and had over 400 aircraft in attendance. At the
end of the fly-in Dennis Trone's one-of-a kind OX-5 powered
"Thunderbird" was voted Antique Grand Champion.
There will be more to report on the fly-in so stay tuned to
this page. In the mean time if the video/slideshow presentation
inspires you to want to find out more about the Antique Airplane
Association and the Air Power Museum and you are not already a member
of the AAA or a donor to the APM please consider joining with us to
help keep the antique airplane movement viable and alive for the
future.
