A two dimensional TMA object appears to be present in Cedar Rapids. Obviously the depth component is missing and I'm not sure the final dimensions are quite proportional. Perhaps Bowman knows.

Price of Freedom - Orian G. Owens
Posted on 22:30 by andrew symond

During World War II Orian G. Owens' B-17F was shot down over Holland on a return bombing raid to Germany on January 11, 1944. He and other crewmates parachuted out and were recovered by resistance fighters. In April German SS found the crew, interrogated the Americans and shot them in what is now known as the massacre of St. Remy. After the war, Orian's body was returned to his family for burial in the Lisbon Cemetery. Read my article about him here.

Watching small planes land and take-off never gets old at the Marion Fly-in in Marion, Iowa.
To get the full look at the Marion airport you can ride the hayrack around the grounds.
Nothing like a hayrack ride and a thumb to calm the nerves.
Always a crowd pleaser - a local hospital patient copter.
One of the hospital copter's healthcare professionals explains the medical features of the mobile unit.
