BY EVE SEITER
Committee :members' ;hearts.
were in their throats! Suppose it
should rainl With all that food in
in the hangar and all the arrange-
ments .made--rain would be a
disaster! The pilots also had an
eagle eye out for the weather.
Would the early morning fog lift
in time to take off for breakfast
in Wintersville, Ohio? Happily,
the fog lifted and it didn't rain.
The sun shone on stome 1500 peo-
ple who walked in, drove in, flew
in and, yes, sneaked in to the Win-
tersville Airport Sunday morn-
ing, August 16th, to spend a thril-
ling day with the Barnhills Flying
Circus!
Breakfast was served from
8 a.m. to 12 noon in the great
hangar where our local fliers
regula'rly house their private
planes. As early as 8:30 visiting
pilots, with their families and
friends, began to drop in from
towns within a hundred mile radi-
us of Wintersville. As they taxied
to a standstill steaming hot pan
cakes, eggs, sausages and bever-
ages were coming right up!
Scrambled egg sandwiches-ser-
ved as brunch for later arrivals.
The Fly-In Breakfast, spon-
sored by the Wintersville Cham-
ber of Commerce under Presi-
dent, Paul Wells, began to take
on the character of a family
reunion! Everyone seemed to
know everyone else. Sunshine,
food, friendliness and the ex-
citing prospect of a good show
combined to create a day long
to be remembered!
Space-Age children who have
cut their eye teeth on jets and
flights to the moon watched the
antics of Bill Jaccaud, the
"World's Only Clown Pilot", in
open mouthed glee! Flying a Cub
and costumed as a happy-go-
lucky clown, Bill fled from the
cops, landed his plane, foolishly
bouncing it like a rubber ball
on the runway and hid in a
venerable "Chick Sales"--only
to be caught at last with drooping
drawers! Bill's seemingly reck-
less performance was actually
the high precision acrobatics of
a skillful flier. Bill flew Air
Force P-38s in World War 11,
piloted the massive cargo planes
which were part of the Berlin
Airlift emergency, then switched
to the speed of sound F-84 Jets!
Bill is not only an artist in the
air but a good comrmercial artist
when his feet are on the ground.
Expertly paced and timed, the,
hour and forty-five minute show
was enthralling from first to last.
The older spectators briefly re-
captured the nostalgic sense of
wonder they felt when man first
soared off into the blue yonder
in frail, linen -covered, lighter
than air crates!
Three veteran fliers with im-
pressive credentials and a-
chievements to their credit pre-
sented the Flying Circus spec-
tacular. Major Bob Barnhill, Dale
McBride and Merle (Red) Barn-
hill flew in precise formation--
spiraling, diving, looping and
soaring away in a breathtaking
display of skillful technique that
became for the watching pilots,
at least, the climax of the air
show.
Major Bob hold the Dis-
tinguished Flying Cross and has
more than 4000 flying hours to
his credit. Altogether he has
served eleven years of active
military duty, including 88 Com-
bat Rescue Missions in Korea!
Dale McBride has been flying
eleven years. He is a former
Marine Sergeant in the Korean
Campaign and is a bank official
in Ashland, Ohio.
"Red" Barnhill is Bob's
brother, whose love of the gla-a-
orous bi-planes of his youth has
resulted in the Barnhills' Flying
Circus! After a period of mili-
tary service "Red" acquired a
classic antique plane, a UPF-7
bi-plane. After barnstorming a
few local air shows and Fly-
Ins "Red" and his associates
acquired a second Waco and the
Barnstorming Barnhills' Flying
Circus, based in Akron, Ohio
was in business. It's interesting
to note that all three of the be
skillful, dare devil pilots are
married and, respectively, fa-
thers of several children. Each
also has his feet solidly entrench-
ed in a professional business.
After the show spectators were
privileged to ride in the antique
planes. For a small fee they took
to the air in open bl-planes
discovering for themselves the
beauty of the heavens and cap-
turing a bird's eye view of the
rolling hills of home.
At last dusk began to fall. The
show was over. A dead tired com-
mittee took stock of the day,
unmarred by a single mishap!
They found it worthwhile. Asking
this writer not to use his name,
the Committee Chairman enthu-
ed, "Every guy worked his heart
out to make it a success--just
give the "Chamber" the credit!"
Congratulations to The Winters-
ville Chamber of Commerce who
brought the Barnstormin' Barn-
hills Flying Circus to town and
gave us all a day--long to be
remembered.
