Bowling Green, Ky – Five years ago, a retired Air Force veteran from Warren County had a dream of building a place where young people could learn about local pilots. Now, the Bowling Green Aviation Heritage Park is being dedicated. Restored and on display in the park is the F-4 Phantom aircraft Dan Cherry flew in the Vietnam War. A special guest at the dedication ceremony is the Vietnamese pilot Cherry shot down over Hanoi nearly 40 years ago. Lisa Autry reports.
