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.
Amid NATO’s continued push to ramp up air defenses in Eastern Europe, Secretary of the Air Force Frank Kendall swung by seven allied countries to boost relations last week, including those on Russia’s and Ukraine’s doorstep.
