I remember this day in 1948,too. I was 9 years old at the time and we lived in Paavola. Seemed like a loooong walk to a 9 year old. There were many old biplanes, and even some of the old 'flying boxcars', transports. Who knew that a few years later I would be working at O'Hare in Chicago, when they opened up. Remember Ozark Airlines?
