Season finale

People enjoyed great weather and some special visitors -- a Med-Evac helicopter at left and ANG Warthog at right --  at October Open Cockpit.
An enthusiastic crowd enjoyed a balmy October day at the Museum's last Open Cockpit event of the season. Added attractions included a new State Police Med-Evac helicopter and a Maryland Air National Guard A-10 Warthog.  An airport fire pumper also provided a demonstration of its fire-fighting capabilities.  Some people also got to see the helicopter crew called to an emergency and take off.

See you next year, when we plan more exciting Open Cockpit days!
