The Dawn Patrol Rendezvous World War I Fly-In, one of the leading historical aviation events in the country, will appear at the National Museum of the US Air Force in Dayton, Ohio from Sept. 30-Oct. 2. The event features flyovers by vintage reproduction aircraft, such as the Fokker DR-1, SE-5, and Curtiss JN4D Jenny. In 2003, the last time the Dawn Patrol came to the museum, it drew approximately 50,000 visitors.
A new report from the Government Accountability Office calls for the Pentagon’s Chief Technology Officer to have budget certification authority over the military services’ research and development accounts—a move the services say would add a burdensome and unnecessary layer of bureaucracy.
