Speak Up: What’s your favorite flight?

Posted

A Delaware vet recently reminisced about a 1980s flight he took on the “Texas Raider” B-17, which crashed at a Texas air show Nov. 12. Dover Air Force Base provides proximity to planes that are part of its mission, as well as historic planes here for events or as part of the Air Mobility Command Museum’s work restoring vintage crafts. What plane do you have memories of flying to or from the base or other Delaware airfields?

  • The flight taking me to see my family and then home again safely. — Sandy Johnson
  • Early 1990s open house. F-117 Nighthawk tucked in the hangar, and you were allowed to look at it from the front. — Jonathan Contant
