So I listen to am620 all the time and Charlie Sykes w/620 really got the word out about this program, personally I had no clue about it. So the other day I said to myself " what the hell I'm getting up at 6:00am on a Sunday ( usually my day to sleep in big time :rolf ) to watch the Massive Delta Airlines 747-400 that was amazing to see by itself full of 200 of WWII veterans take off

They had 3 T-6 Texans escort the 747-400 in a zig zag formation and all 3 took off, then as the 747-400 was on the run way they did a beautiful fly by.......

I love this stuff :thumbsup

I knew I heard planes fly over the house a little early.

X-Wing (Jack T.) is on that flight with his father. I knew nothing about it other than what Jack told me as I am listening to ever increasingly insane rodeo clown Glenn Beck on XM when Sykes is normally on. I'd listen to Sykes more often but I'm out of range WTMJ range for most of his show. It sounds like it would have been really cool to see. :usa
