Military Aviation

Last update: 02/12/02

Flyby for Gabby On 31 January, we lost one of "the greats" in fighter aviation – Col Francis "Gabby" Gabreski, American ace of the air wars in both WW2 and Korea. On Wednesday, February 6, 2002, the United States Air Force paid tribute to this great American hero. Join us as USAF F-15 pilot, Randall Haskin takes us along with him in this unique look at the "Flyby for Gabby" [click here for story and photos]
Operation Sentry Eagle Something a little different - we've got a little program that whips up an image gallery in about 45 seconds, we thought this might give us the opportunity to share our view of a very good use of our tax dollars. Dissimilar Air Combat Exercises, held 08/18/01 at Kingsley Field, Oregon.

From the Air Corps to the Peace Corps- Read this retired Air Force Colonel's story. From flying the hump, to joining the Peace Corps.
WWII Story: This Is It!- This is the story of one B-17, and it's crew's experiences in WWII. The men and women that served our country during the second world war have many stories to tell. As time goes by and memories of these events fade, it's important to keep them in our minds. FlightLine reader Bob Goodman has sent us a series of letters, written by his father, Bill Goodman. This is the first in a series of these letters, written by a father to his family, remembering events long ago
