Memorial Service for Capt. Carey Bowles 4/29/12

[Peter Okicich]

I am writing to let you know that we are having a memorial gathering for Carey Bowles on the 29th of April at Warwick Airport (Hangar 5) Warwick NY. I have chosen 12 noon as the estimated arrival time, hoping this would give people time to fly in if they chose to. I realize I should have sent this information to you earlier, so forgive me for leaving it so late. Our contact at Warwick Airport is Dave Macmillan (phone:845 987 1320)

I am collecting some slides from Carey's China days and will tell a story (from notes he wrote) about an adventure coming in to land at Chungking Airport. I have also asked a pilot from the EAA to speak about his days in aeronautical engineering school and the Long EZ for me. We would welcome anyone who can make it up to the airport and would be delighted if they had a story to tell. We would certainly be able to read out any thoughts or memories people would like to contribute by email.

I would be most grateful if you could be able to publish this information for me through the Flying Tigers newsletter and /or website.

My email is: bolznz@yahoo.co.nz

All the very best,
Cindy Bowles
