I am not sure how many of you may be actual Warbird pilots, but I was inquiring to see if, as a pilot, you may be interested in flying over a WWII 29 vehicle convoy on September 19, 2009, in Adams County, PA (East of Gettysburg, PA)
In our third year, our convoy of American and Canadian troops will be leaving the Eisenhower Farm Complex about 0800 and driving through the countryside of Adams County, PA on our way to "Liberate" the town of New Oxford. The exact route is yet to be determined but we should be in New Oxford about 0900.
The thought is to have a low flyover of a WWII Aircraft, even a scout plane would do. In the past, our convoy took place in Emmitsburg, MD... a bit too close to the restricted flight zone around Camp David.
I was hoping to find a WWII aircraft to fly over the convoy this year since it was in Adams County, PA.
If this is something that is feasible, let me know. If the request is too out of hand... let me know. I just thought it might be a nice added touch to our convoy this year.
Interested in your thoughts...
Sincerely,

Note: Our event schedule shows the convoy going from Eisenhower Farm to Emmitsburg and back. However, this was changed a couple of months ago to New Oxford, PA (Just east of Gettysburg).
