Sent to me by a friend, thought I would
publish in honor of my recently departed father who flew the P-61 and was
preparing as CO of a newly created squadron of the 450th when V-J
Day happened and the war was over.

The Annual ORD Delta Pilot's Fly In was once
again a fantastic success! Many thanks to the McGreevy's - all of
them- for hosting and all the work they did for this great
get together. The weather was perfect and Steve McGreevy
Jr and his wife have a fantastic place and hanger there at Poplar Grove
Airport, IL.
There were just over 40 Delta pilots,
mechanics, agents and flight attendants with a total of over 80 people enjoying
this great annual event. 15 airplane flew in and another 3 or 4 are
keep on the field there. Along with the 15 airplanes we had 2
motorcycles and many great looking fancy cars make it too. The food was
awesome!!!
Next year's ORD Delta Pilot's Fly In, which
is always held on the 2nd Wednesday of September will be at Captain Jim Adams
place. Hope to see you there!!
Again thanks to the McGreevy's and all those
that helped to make this a great success. Oh, and I send thanks to
Captain Ray Bye for letting me fly co-pilot for him in his beautiful Cirrus to
the fly in.
And Thanks to all that made it there.
Enjoy the pictures, David W. Skjerven
