Gillespie Field Aviation Event

April 21-23, 2008

Come see the vintage warbirds and other aircraft at the event to be held at Gillespie Field from April 21st to the 23rd. The Collings Foundation will be bringing their B-17, B-24, and B-25 bombers, selling rides for those who wish to experience what it was like to fly in those vintage bombers. Another area of the field will host a variety of tables and tents with vendors, exhibitors, and others as are usually found at our annual airshow. The theme of this event is Kids and Aviation, with a special emphasis on the educational side of our aviation community. Admission and parking are free for this daytime event!

Hawaiian shirts a hit!

Our PX has had great success in selling our aviation-themed Hawaiian shirts at airshows and other events. Our prices beat those in the stores, and the money goes to support the wing. Come check out our selection, and get one for yourself and/or as holiday gifts for your friends.

DONATE YOUR VEHICLES TO SUPPORT AG-1

Great News! Air Group One has entered into a partnership with YouAutoDonate.com. Now you can donate your old car, boat, RV, or other vehicle and have the money go towards Air Group One. Your donation will be tax-deductible, you avoid the hassles of selling your vehicle and dealing with the DMV, and the money goes to a good cause. In most cases, they'll even come and pick up the vehicle from you. Just go to the YouAutoDonate.com website and navigate to the AG-1 page; you'll find all the details there.

CAF Air Group One and Tuskegee Airmen members take a moment to reflect,
