'Concorde Reunion' Planned at AirVenture
A handful of occurrences over the decades have helped establish EAA's annual AirVenture Oshkosh fly-in as the world's premiere annual general aviation event. Undeniably, one of those milestones occurred in 1985 when the British Airways Concorde supersonic transport made its first of five visits to Wittman Regional Airport. That "happening" helped enhance the stature of "Oshkosh" in the eyes of the global aviation community. This being the 40th anniversary year of Concorde's first flight, EAA will commemorate the aircraft's unforgettable Oshkosh appearances with a series of special programs and activities at AirVenture 2009, July 27-August 2.
