Add comment April 25th, 2008

AirFest 2008, June 6, 7 and 8  at ChicagoRockford International Airport will have three, honorary festival chairmen, or as I like to call them, “air marshals.”

They are: Jim Powers, colonel, US Army retired; Chuck Thomas, lawyer who was key to development of the Greater Rockford Airport Authority; and  Bill Robertson, Rockford’s fire chief, who will retire in June.

AirFest this year features the return of the Air Force’s Thunderbirds.’
