League members Ross Walton and Fred Murrin prepare for take-off on the flight line of the USAF Museum Aerodrome at the Great War Aeroplanes Association 2000 World War One Fly-In. Highlights of the event (at least for the spectators) were Fred's emergency landing on the grass following the failure of his rotary engine, and Ross' loop--possibly the only time a Dr.I has been looped since 1918. The next Fly-In, scheduled for 2003 will immediately follow the League of WW1 Aviation Historians seminar at the Museum. Start making your plans to attend now. (Richard Jayne photo.)
