Through The Lens 28 – WWII Weekend

It’s that time of year again! This weekend is Mid Atlantic Air Museum’s WWII Weekend.  After only spending one day there last year, I’m looking forward to a full weekend this year.

Sadly, the P-47 Thunderbolt, Jacky’s Revenge, pictured above will not be in attendance this year. Last Friday, it suffered what is believed to be engine failure and was landed in the Hudson River.  It’s pilot, Bill Gordon, drowned when the plane sank before he was able to get out of the harness.  My condolences go out to the Gordon Family and to the folks at the American Airpower Museum.
