Bonham -- Seventy years after PT-19s first roared through the air above Bonham, Texas as the workhorse of the Army Air Corps flight school then located at Jones Field, one of the historic warbirds is on its way to Bonham to participate in the Festival of Flight on Saturday, November 3.

Cavanaugh Museum of Flight will fly in a PT-19 for the event.

Several PT-17 Stearmans were stationed at Jones Field and a Stearman will be on the tarmac Saturday for the Festival of Flight.

Don't miss this fascinating showcase of some of the World War II aircraft that played an important role in our nation's history. An air show and a tribute to veterans are scheduled for Saturday afternoon.

TAPS has also agreed to provide transportation free of charge from the airport to downtown Bonham.

Don't miss this FREE event the entire family can enjoy.
