10:20amCT, Sat 09 Jul 2016 - There was a lot of anticipation as a part of the welcoming party for a famed World War I era biplane, the JN-1 developed by aircraft pioneer Glenn Curtiss, was scheduled to refuel at Columbia/Adair County Airport today, on it's return home to Bowling Green, KY, from London. The crew called ahead to make sure the fueling station would be available after flying the more than one hour trip.

They were hoping to make an early visual sighting, but they were also hoping to hear the vintage aircraft. When someone said they thought it was in earshot, another, disappointed, said, "That's the drink machine." - EW
