Army Day Air Show Draws Hundreds at Athens Route 50
At Athens Route 50 and Ohio University Airport crowds of about 500 watched jet fighters and bombers perform. Lockbourne Army Air Base F-47s dived and strafed the field while Langley Air Force jets and IRB-26 bombers offered aerial demonstrations. An AT-6 trainer also buzzed the field in a brief unscheduled finale. Ground comms failures hampered contact with pilots but did not deter spectators and the event included an open house at the armory with displays of gear and mine detectors.
