It sure has kepi t most of the planes grounded, esped ally those who went to Ploridi and tried to get baek home. Then were about 5,000 light planes In th< Gulf Tour of Florida and most ol them were held on the ground be . cause of bad weather In the Carall * naa. There were four pianos from Oe veland county and l think ail ok theip were left between Jackson ville and Columbia. Everything went well on our trl| down and during the week. We arrived In Miami shortly aft* 4 p. m. on Monday. The weather wai Maklad' iiwiinf ?uu imn| in un aights around Miami. The highlight of the trip was th? Air Show which laated 3 days. There were thrills all the time Alicfart that dated back to the ear ly days, f-51, P-38, stunt flying, rac es, tat leal demonstrations by the ar my, navy and marine alrforoes There were 21 army Jets of the P-8< type. The navy had their new Je fighter, the Phantom, there. Watch Ing those Jets flash across the skj was like watching a fast tennii game. * My neck was sore after trying t< keep up with them. The Army's new C-74 (Cargo! Globe Master was there. It weight 174?pQ0 pounds and can earn' ltt weight in cargo. It to almost un believable to see it fly. All the new pfrlcate planes ant latest equipment were on display I think everybody enjoyed th< trip vety much. Even if we did havt to wait a week for the weather ft clear up and then ride the but home. . Last Week's Column by J. C.
