The Kansas City Dawn Patrol
Flying World War I-era Nieuport 11s, the Kansas City Dawn Patrol was formed in 1988 to show folks at Missouri fly-ins the first airplane flown in combat by an organized U.S. squadron. One of the founders, Dick Starks, says that when F-22 or F-15 pilots accept an invitation to jump in his Nieuport cockpit, Theyre amazed. Three instruments on the panel, a stick, rudder, and throttle. And thats all. (Video: Chris Gerlach and Tim Gerlach)
