HOUSTON – December 21, 2021 – The Lone Star Flight Museum (LSFM) announced today that it has entered into an agreement with the Mid America Flight Museum in Mount Pleasant, Texas (MAFM) whereby LSFM has agreed to sell its Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress, Thunderbird to MAFM. Mid America has agreed to display Thunderbird at Lone Star’s facility at Houston’s Ellington Airport for several months each year through 2024. Mid America has also agreed to make other aircraft from its collection available for display at LSFM during the same time frame. The agreement marks the beginning of a new relationship between the two aviation museums that holds future benefit for both. The move of the B-17 later this Spring to Mount Pleasant ensures it will remain in Texas. The continued presence of the B-17 and access to Mid America’s collection of historically significant aircraft enables Lone Star to create new programs and events around the visiting aircraft and promote the mission of both museums. Lone Star President & Chief Executive Officer Doug Owens, Lt. Gen. (ret.) said “While we are sad that Thunderbird will be leaving us, the opportunity with this effort is the promise of a long and great relationship between two Texas flight museum’s that share interests and priorities.

The Doolittle Raiders Doolittle's Tokyo Raiders America's First Response to Pearl Harbor On April 18, 1942, 16 B-25 Mitchell medium bombers launched from the deck of the USS Hornet to attack Japan. Led by Lt. Col. James H. Doolittle, the daring mission was America’s first response to Pearl Harbor and stands as one of the most courageous events of World War II. Although the raid caused minimal damage, American morale soared from the depths to which it had plunged following the Pearl Harbor attack. The surprise attack on the previously untouched home islands of Japan is considered by many historians to be a primary cause of the Japanese decisions that led to their defeat at the Battle of Midway only six weeks later. Planning for the raid was one of the most closely held secrets and the Japanese did not learn how the raid was conducted until after the war was over. Thirteen of the 80 men on the raid were from Texas, more than from any other state. §110.24.

  • Air Force Heritage Flight Foundation // Wings Over Houston Airshow Media Summary
    Air Force Heritage Flight Foundation // Wings Over Houston Airshow Media Summary Overview: The Air Force Heritage Flight Foundation will perform in the Wings Over Houston (WOH) Airshow hosted at the Ellington Airport on October 20-21 by providing Heritage Flight Team pilots (Charles “Tuna” Hainline & Tom “Gumby” Gregory, III) and one P-47 Thunderbolt vintage warplane (Snafu) which will fly alongside the U.S. Air Force F-16 “Viper” Demo Team’s Fighting Falcon. Air Force Heritage Flight Team (available for interviews): Charles “Tuna” Hainline, P-47 Pilot, Air Force Heritage Flight Foundation Charles was born in Medford, Oregon in 1964. He grew up on a small farm and worked his way through college harvesting wheat and grass seed in the Willamette Valley. He saved up and learned to fly when he was 18 — his instructor would land the Aeronca Champ on a farm road near the field Charles was working and give him a lesson at lunchtime. After graduating from Oregon State University, Charles was accepted to U.S. Air Force Officer Training School and was commissioned a second lieutenant in October 1986. After pilot training, Charles flew the A-10 in Korea and in Louisiana, where they started calling him “Tuna.” He then moved on to the F-117 Stealth Fighter at Tonopah Test Range, Nevada and Holloman AFB, New Mexico. After the F-117 he was accepted as an exchange officer with the Navy, where he flew the F/A-18 Hornet in VFA-106. As a RAG (RTU) instructor, he was carrier qualified with 101 traps.
