Pictures from visiting West Houston Airport near Katy TX Open House
West Houston Squadron of the Commemorative Air Force (CAF) held an open house on Saturday April 21, 2012.
The spring open house will also be held on Sunday April 22, 2012. Get there early so you will not miss anything!
The doors will be open each day from 10AM until 5 PM.
Since it was absolutely gorgeous day from a weather perspective I decided to attend for a change one of the events I had written a blog about. My prior blog about the open house can be seen by clicking here.
There were many folks in attendance and that was really nice to see. The sights included numerous planes from several different eras, paratroopers, missing man formation, cool old cars, several pilots, and some military personnel. This was a fund raiser and only required a $10 donation for parking. One SUV I saw must have had 14 or more people inside. I personally try to be cheap but REALLY!
My step-son and his dad joined me for a while and we all had a great time. They were selling food and we all had hamburgers they cooked on site and these were delicious.
Seeing all these planes plus writing a blog about the event earlier this past week and a comment made by Q-Man from ActiveRain ( AKA John McCormack) about his dad having been a pilot reminded me of my childhood dream of wanting to be a pilot. I had not been to an event like this for way too many years.
I hope you all enjoy the pictures.
