"They listen to our jet noise all day, the least we can do is let them see who the people are who make all that noise." The visitors enjoyed the attention their escorts provided during the air show preview. "They were so appreciative that we took the time out of our day to spend with theny" he said. "After the show they sent us cards and cookies to say thanks." Marilyn McCarthy of Apple Village was thrilled with the airshow. "The whole show was spectacular. It was the show of shows," she said.
