Why am I having to read this on BBC?

School chileren have been taught for more than a generation that America is an oppressor nation. We can't have people learning about any of the extremely generous things this country has done, dontcha know? /s

My brother in law in a soon retiring Air force Lt. Col. and had a book I read about the General in charge of the operation. He turned “flying the hump” from India to China into a successful operation during WW II. Before he came the loss rate was terrible and aircraft availability was abysmal. Stalin threw in the towel when they began flying fresh strawberries into Berlin.

I consider myself very fortunate/honored to have worked with A2A Simulations since 2003. (a2asimulations.com)

The Berlin Airlift Historical Foundation turns to A2A Simulations to create the official flight training program for their Boeing C97 “Angel of Deliverance”

The Berlin Airlift Historical Foundation currently flies their Douglas C54 “Spirit of Freedom” across North America and abroad, and is in the process of bringing their beautiful Boeing C97 “Angel of Deliverance” to flying condition. The Boeing C97 is a large 4-engine, medium to long range, high altitude, and high speed military transport similar to the Boeing 377 Stratocruiser commercial transport. A2A Simulations is now partnered with the Berlin Airlift and is the official developer for their new “Accu-Simulator” which is based on the Wings of Silver Boeing 377 Stratocruiser with the Accu-Sim expansion pack for Microsoft Flight Simulator X. We support the mission of the fine people at the Berlin Airlift Historical Foundation, to teach and remind the world of the true spirit of freedom.
