It started with one pilot and one plane, but now every year the skies over Michigan are filled with dozens of aircraft delivering gifts to less fortunate children through Operation Good Cheer. This year’s flights take place December 4, and AVweb‘s Russ Niles spoke with volunteer pilot John DeCarli about a great excuse to go flying. Anyone interested in the program can visit the Operation Good Cheer web site.
