Hi all,
I'm sure there are others like me who can confirm that it made it to Airventure in Oshkosh that year. It was a most impressive sight, but for me was a bit disappointing in flight. Where one is expecting some type of "rumble" from the engines, the noise generated more closely resembles that of a giant ultralight.
Still glad I had a chance to see her fly, though.
Best to all,
Dan
