Does anyone have any pictures, videos, or transcripts from the Marfa
event held yesterday? Last year I wrote my Senior Honors Thesis on
Marfa 69&70 using Joe Lincolns original notes courtesy of Peter Smith
at the NSM. I would like to update it with material from this event
and then release it publically as well as potentially prepare an
article for the magazine. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Most everyone is now on their way home. There was a great crowd in
attendance and I was very fortunate to also attend this truly
outstanding and historical event. Many photos were taken and a video
crew was there to record the festivities. The video crew also made
video recordings of the recollections and stories that were told by
many of the pilots who flew at Marfa in the 60s' and 70s. I would
strongly recommend that you contact Burt Compton (who along with
Simine Short, Kathie Compton and MANY others did an outstanding job in
organizing this great event), for detailed information and photos.
