The Privateer Traveled to California for the Chino Airshow

The Privateer traveled to California for the Chino Airshow

On Friday May 2nd, the Privateer took off from Casa Grande, AZ headed to the Chino Airshow. Lindsey and Dave caught a ride to the show! This was Lindsey’s first trip to Chino, she had a ton of fun and met lots of new people. Dave enjoyed one day of airshow fun, then had to return to AZ to work. The PB4Y-2 was on display at the show, and headed back home to Casa Grande on Sunday afternoon.

The Chino Airshow was a great success! The show had something for everyone! Airplanes were displayed on the ramp all weekend, the Horsemen performed at the show among other warbirds, great food, shopping, and fun for all! The show had WWII Veteran’s in attendance to share their stories with everyone, they were all so amazing!
