On Thursday August 22nd the Aviation world lost one of the most recognized names in Aviation due to Cancer. The founder of the EAA (Experimental Aircraft Association) Paul Poberezny (1921 - 2013) of Oshkosh, WI. WWII, & Korean War Veteran went on to create, & establish the largest airshow in the US at Oshkosh around the last week of July every year.
I only saw him in person from a short distance several times; but always liked to hear him speak when he did. I mention this because farmers across the Wisconsin countryside knows when large flights (25 - 100 planes) would roar 1 after another across there farms, or even in groups of 3, or 4; spaced a 1/4 mile apart or so, & would last for several minutes that way. There are videos on YouTube of people pulling over to film these armadas of aircraft flying over to, & from the airshow which lasts a full week, & boasts around 10,000 aircraft.
Gone less than a day, & I miss him already. My Heart goes out to the family, & the friends He made in his exceptional endeavors in His life. May God Bless, & comfort those in morning!
