Aero-Linx!
Scouring the information super airways can sometimes be a tough, if educational, task for the Aero-News staff... but it also allows us to check out some truly neat and exciting sites, so it's not that bad a gig. On any given day, we may check dozens (and often hundreds) of different sources for story ideas, and facts confirmation. And, as is the nature of our business, much of this is done on the Internet.
The ANN gang decided we probably shouldn't keep some of the neat sites, info resources, and organizations we've discovered to ourselves... so we decided to bring you Aero-Linx. These are the sites that WE check out -- when we need added perspective, a new spin on a day's topic... or just want to escape into cyber-aero-space for awhile.
Look for some of our favorite sites, coming each day to ANN via Aero-Linx. Suggestions for future Aero-Linx segments are always welcome, as well.
Aero Linx: Fying Tigers Heritage Park
This site is dedicated to raising funds for the preservation, restoration, and creation of an historical site at the Flying Tigers airstrip, Yang Tang, in Guilin, China (formerly known as Kwelin).
This site will recognize and commemorate the accomplishments and friendships forged between the Flying Tigers and the Chinese during WWII.
The Flying Tiger Historical Organization, Inc, was founded for the purpose of fund raising. All donations are tax deductible. Along with raising funds, we will be seeking memorabilia related to the Flying Tigers (both AVG and 14th AAF) which will be displayed in the Flying Tiger Heritage Park Museum.
