Book excerpt: Bud Davidson recalls his own 25 years of volunteering. Using interviews, the story builds on the experiences of many others that led a small weekend fly-in to become an international multi-million dollar event. Sources include little known debates that are documented in the minutes of Board and Executive Committee meetings. He has compiled a record of the transition from a small membership convention to an internationally recognized exposition some consider the second largest aviation event in the world. The stories related here have been verified by documents and photos portraying the experiences of volunteers who return each year, something many have done for the entire life of this unique event.
