Tonight on Warbird Radio LIVE!, Matt Jolley welcomes Mark Peterson from the Classic Jet Aircraft Association joins Matt Jolley on Warbird Radio LIVE with a look at the world of vintage military jets. Mark is no stranger to warbirds, he currently operates two P-51 Mustangs, Hell-er Bust and DiamondBack as well as an Alpha Jet.
According to MustangHighFlight.com, Peterson started flying at the age of six in a Piper Cherokee Arrow. The aviation bug bit early and bit hard. Peterson’s father, Ed, flew the B-24 Liberator on 29 missions with the Army Air Corps in the European Theatre during World War II. After returning to civilian life, Ed found ways to keep aviation in his business and personal life, and as a result his son grew up surrounded by aviation. Today, Mark Peterson flies at air shows across North America, and is a Director with the Classic Jet Aircraft Association.
Tune in Tuesday 5/12/15 at 8pm (EASTERN) for a lively discussion about classic jets and more. As always, your calls and comments are welcome and appreciated.
