Craig Welch |
Craig was born in south central Wisconsin. He has always been interested in Warbirds since he was about 10 years old. He attended EAA Oshkosh one year and was fortunate enough to see the Harrier do a vertical take off. He was also near the end of the runway when the Concord SST took off. Of course there were many other great airshows that the EAA hosts. In 2009 he found out about the P51 ride raffle tickets and contacted Gordon Millerin of Squadron 4. After a few email exchanges it became clear that this was an organization he wanted to be a part of. At this point, his involvement has been confined to Squadron 4 events and re-working the website with Brian. |
