VAC Flyin Breakfast

From the VAC Facebook page:

This month’s Valiant Air Command, Warbird Ramp Fly-In/Drive-In Breakfast will be held Saturday, 11 August from 8-11AM.

This is a great opportunity for pilots and public to enjoy the camaraderie of each other, in the unique surroundings of the Valiant Air Command’s vintage warbird environment.

As always, the museum admission is waived for pilots and passengers who “Fly in” — and for those that Drive-in, breakfast is FREE with a regular paid admission.

So fly-in, or drive-in, and have breakfast, take a tour and become a part of history!

All attendees: please RSVP with the number of your party, so that we can ensure the proper meals. Call us at 321-268-1941, or email vacwarbirds@bellsouth.net. Pass the word to pilots and friends!
