WINGS OVER HOUSTON 2011!

The 27th Annual Wings Over Houston Air Show was presented by the Ghost Squadron of the Commemorative Air Force Gulf Coast Wing and West Houston Squadron. The Commemorative Air Force is the largest flying museum in the world.  The CAF is dedicated to honoring American military aviation through flight, exhibition and remembrance, by maintaining a flying museum of classic military aircraft.

The CAF has approximately 8,500 members and a fleet of more than 160 airplanes. Members accept the responsibility of protecting these rare flying monuments of freedom. They keep them in flying condition, repair, rebuild and pilot these unique assets. Future generations will benefit from the CAF’s preservation efforts, educational programs, museum exhibits and air shows.

Team Chambliss was lucky enough to see the B-29, who is fondly referred to as “FiFi”. It is the only flying B-29 today, thanks to the CAF.

It was Kirby’s first time at Wings Over Houston, and he was happy to be performing in the Lone Star State! Kirby says, “It’s just great to be back in Texas again!” Kirby closed the show with his inverted ribbon cut and we would guarantee we heard a few yee haa’s! Hats off to a great show Houston!
