It isn’t a Sun ‘n Fun Aerospace Expo without Mother Nature butting in with a few bucket loads of rain here and there, and yesterday’s contributions did not disappoint.

How long can you tread water??? We have not one, but TWO amazing P-51 Mustang replicas to consider now... and the European SW-51 differs in that it's a beautiful all-composite rendition that zooms around on a Rotax 915iS. King Schools has had a wonderful scholarship program running now, in various iterations for over a decade and the most recent winner is a broadcast helicopter pilot and instructor who has demonstrated exceptional resolve. Speaking of water... one of the most cost-effective ways to enjoy land, sea and air is a cool little two seat amphibian known as the SeaMax... come get a tour of the airplane. Sun ‘n Fun never fails to appeal to all manner of people, planes and products... such as the little girl who brought her airplane soaps to Lakeland with the hopes of making it big... Yes... they’re here to fly airshows... But they’re also here to connect with the American people they serve... including the occasional hero or two. This week, the Thunderbirds offered a ride to
a most-deserving Lakeland PD officer who has demonstrated heroic service to his community for many years. Don't forget to tune into each morning's 0900ET MORNING BRIEF... LIVE... at www.airborne-live.net. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
