The 2nd annual Mentor West Fly-In gathering organized a mass flyover of the Santa Barbara Veterans Day Parade on Saturday the 12th.

The mass formation was the largest fly-over for a Veterans Day parade anywhere in the United States and included a P-51 Mustang, multiple T-34’s, Nanchang’s, Yaks, a C47 and our very own B-25 PBJ and Executive Sweet of the AAF.

Launch and recovery of all these aircraft from the Camarillo airport made for an especially exciting day at the museum.
