Honorees who were able were also given rides in an historic Boeing Stearman biplane. The rides provided flew out of the Boulder City Airport that morning. It was noted after WWII, thousands of such aircraft were destroyed, but the few that are left are still “great airplanes” and can often be seen flying in vintage motion pictures. The Ageless Aviation Dreams Foundation is a nonprofit organization established and dedicated to seniors and United States military veterans living in long-term care facilities who have always had a burning desire to “soar like an eagle.” The group provides opportunities to experience the thrill of flights riding in the cockpit of an aircraft used to train many military aviators in the late 30s and early 40s.
