 Posted: Mon May 21, 2012 6:01 am Post subject: The Original RV-1 Midwest Barnstorming Tour |
 |
|
Richard VanGrunsven's original RV-1 -- yes, the grandaddy of all of our RVs -- is about to begin its Midwest Barnstorming Tour across the I-80/90 corridor. One week from today -- Memorial Day, May 28th -- "The One" will cross over from Canada and clear customs at Toledo Executive Airport (TDZ) in the morning.
The Toledo EAA chapter has some events planned for the day (including food, naturally), and then the RV-1 will continue its cross-country tour with a stop at the Mishawaka Pilots' Club (3C1) in Elkhart, IN for fuel and an overnight stop.
Next on the tour is Marshall County Airport (C75) in Lacon, IL (near Peoria), then on to Omar Bradley (MBY) in Moberly, MO, on May 29th.
If you'd like to see a very significant piece of RV history -- and indeed, aviation history -- with your very eyes, please plan to fly/drive/hitchhike to one of the Barnstorming Tour stops and spend a little time with fellow RVers and enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The RV-1 will end its tour at the EAA Museum in Oshkosh later this year.
For more information, please go to www.rv-1.org.

I got to see the plane when it stopped at Dogwood (VA42). We'll worth the time to see if you can - if nothing else than to grasp how far the current Van's offerings have evolved.
