Morning Coffee
Roger Brown, the owner of this 1943 Howard, enjoys a morning cup of coffee with family and friends at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh. Originally built in July 1943 as a Navy model NH1 instrument trainer, the aircraft was sold as surplus in 1946 and converted to civilian configuration. Among its several owners was Air Force Gen. Curtis LeMay. LeMay was known for developing formation procedures and bombing techniques used by B-17 bombers throughout the European Theater of Operations during World War II.

Named after Charles Lindbergh, the Lindy Awards acknowledge the effort necessary to create an aircraft that earns the best of show.
