Veteran and Tuskegee Airman, Charles McGee, celebrates his 99th birthday in style. Vincent Mickens of the National Business Aviation Association and Glenn Gonzales, Chief Pilot and CEO of Jet It decided that they wanted to do something special to celebrate Colonel McGee's birthday--by taking him up for a flight in a HA-420 HondaJet.
With McGee turning 99 years young, one would think that he'd be slowing down a bit and taking things easy. But as documented in these photos, you'll notice that Colonel McGee is very much active and not missing a beat!
I was fortunate enough to have been a part of this experience so I saw it as my duty to share these images with the world. To Colonel McGee--thank you for your service to this country, your hospitality, and for the safe and relaxing flight in a HondaJet!
Special thanks to:
*Ralph Crafts - Retired Marine pilot and jet owner
*Glenn Gonzales - CEO of Jet It (Main pilot)
*Vincent Mickens - National Business Aviation Association
*Signature Flight Support IAD
*Hampton Roads Executive Airport
*Thomas Moorehead - Sterling Motorcars
