Aero-News Quote of the Day

“We are very fortunate to be in the position to fund this theater in Dallas. To pay tribute to Charles McGee, a Tuskegee Airman, and Don Hinz, our group’s founder, in this way is tremendous. We are certain that thousands, if not millions, of people who come through the theater will be touched by these real stories of heroes. Our hope is that people who view these films will be emboldened to reach their own goals, and possibly ignite an interest in flying.”

The theater is generously supported by the CAF Red Tail Sponsor Group, an affiliate of the CAF which is committed to educational outreach programs that use the inspirational story of the Tuskegee Airmen as a guide for strength of character and an inspiration to triumph over adversity.
