Ed Bowlin, age 79 of Cedar Ridge Airport community, passed away peacefully on Friday, March 7, 2014. He was a veteran of the United States Air Force having served in the Vietnam War. Ed retired as a pilot from Delta Airlines after 34 years of service. He had served on several boards in the aviation industry and was a mentor and inspiration to many. Ed and his wife Connie were inducted into the Georgia Aviation Hall of Fame in 2009. Ed and Connie both flew P-51 Mustangs.
Does anyone know where I can find that video they played about Ed Bowlin before Bud Anderson spoke in front of the two Old Crows?
