WWII Weekend at MAAM, Reading PA
Posted: Sun May 31, 2009 10:25 amOne of the BIG events is a few days away. The WWII weekend at the Reading Regional Airport/Mid Atlantic Air Museum.
Ultra Rare P-81 Black Widow will be on display. The MAAM is really a great place... they have a B-25 flying and now the P-81 (I am not sure if the P-81 is airworthy).
Plus LOTs of living history. Some of the bigger trucks come out for this... plus jeeps. Also German vehicles show up.
B-17 rides are available. Not sure if FiFi will be back... but lots of Warplanes, vehicles etc. I met R. Lee Ermy and had him sign my dads copy of Siege of Firebase Gloria. He was surprised that anyone even knew that movie existed. He is a great guy. Tall fellow, too.
I generally don't see to many CCKWs at the show. I know a fuel tanker has shown up and an open cab cargo 353.. but that's it.
Anyway.. great show. Great people and great vehicles.
