Worlds Fair in Chicago (Part 4)

Max Trinowski of Lansing, Illinois writes, "Recently on Cable TV's HISTORY CHANNEL a program about historic Aircraft Hangars caught my attention.  I was born in 1918 in Lansing, Illinois and when I was old enough used to go to visit the Ford Airport which was about 2 miles from my home.  In 1933 at the opening of the Worlds Fair in Chicago the entire Air Corps landed at the Ford Airport in Lansing.  It was a real exciting event and I hurried to the Airport and took several pictures...

"I am a [World War II] Bombardier (San Angelo 44-1 DR) and my interest in Aviation continues to this day."
