History buffs, aviation enthusiats and thrill-seekers alike are going to line up for this once-in-a-lifetime experience. Col. Gary Otto, wing leader for the Commemorative Air Force Wisconsin Wing is going to take this lucky winner on a ride in a T-6 "Texan" warbird trainer. (Also called a SNJ-5) Col. Otto has logged more than 2,500 hours and has been flying since 1974. The 1943 plane was used to train pilots of the U.S. Army Air Force during World War II. And now you will get to report for training flying out of the Waukesha airport for a one hour experience (20 minutes of actual flight time) There is only one passenger seat, but feel free to bring your friends and family to visit the hangar and take pictures. Must redeem during warm weather...planes in 1943 didn't have heat! Learn more at www.cafwi.org/snj/facts
