Back from an outstanding National Warbird Operators Conference in Virginia Beach—great safety discussions, great people, and a strong reminder of why we do what we do. Always a bonus to reconnect with old friends and meet new ones in the warbird community. The dinner/awards banquet at the Military Aviation Museum was unforgettable—an amazing collection and a perfect venue for the evening. Here’s to a busy, exciting, and safe airshow season!
