September 8, 2002

Once in a life time visit by all four Good Year Air Ships. As brief as their visit was, they did take time to do a low pass over Detroit City Airport, then flew South down river. Dave (pilot in command) flew his Cessna 150 following the flight of four to Lake Erie, me shooting away.
