The pilots from
all six teams will also be on hand throughout the

fans, sign autographs, and "just talk."
A schedule will be posted at the Pavilion
announcing the day and time of each pilot's
appearance.
General Paul
Tibbets Jr. is also scheduled to be at the
Pavilion all day Saturday, to sign copies of his
book "Return of the Enola Gay" for his
