More than a half century after the legendary Gen. Curtis LeMay created general aviation clubs within the U.S. Air Force, the club that led the way is packing up for departure from Wright-Patterson Air Force Base—located on the birthplace of aviation, Dayton, Ohio.
Why would the base commander, Col. Amanda Gadney do this? The artical doesn't say what the motivation was. Liability? It doesn't sound like a cost saving issue as the Club MADE money. PC move?
