SUSSEX COUNTY AIR FORCE SALUTE
Tax deductible
The recent fly-overs by the Thunderbirds and Blue Angels have been tremendous morale boosters for those who witnessed them. But, unfortunately, those teams are not scheduled to fly over Sussex County.
But to remedy that shortfall, I have reached out to the owner of the B 25 Mitchell bomber "Panchito" and we are in the midst of planning a locally produced fly-over here in Sussex on Saturday, May 23 beginning at 11 am.
So far, included in the event will be Panchito, a P51 Mustang, and several other assets of the Delaware Aviation Museum. The flights will include fly-overs of Beebe, Bayhealth, and Nanticoke hospitals. Paths will also take the aircraft up and down routes 113 and 13 so to increase visibility within Sussex County, Delaware.
The owners had agreed to participate for the cost of their fuel and oil. Therefore, I am in the process of raising $10,000 to cover those costs. It has been agreed that any excess monies shall be used to purchase gift cards from participating restaurants to be distributed to healthcare and first responder teams.
Please support this salute to our healthcare, EMS, and first responders!
