SELFRIDGE CELEBRATES 100 YEARS OF AERIAL REFUELING HARRISON TOWNSHIP — When military planes roar by for a flyover, onlookers usually spot some of the U.S. Air Force’s fastest and flashiest jets. But on June 27, two unsung heroes of military aviation took off from Selfridge Air National Guard Base for a statewide tour in their honor. The two KC-135 Stratotankers took off on a foggy and smoke-filled morning in late June for a nearly three-hour flight, buzzing by Michigan landmarks and communities in recognition of 100 years of in-flight refueling. Joined by two A-10 Thunderbolt II “Warthog” attack jets, the KC-135s showcased
in-flight refueling across the state as part of a nationwide celebration of in-flight refueling’s centenary. “On June 27, (1923) the Army Air Corps delivered fuel gravity-fed from one airplane to another airplane,” said Chief Master Sgt. Maurice Graves, group senior enlisted leader of the 127th Wing’s air refueling group. On that date 100 years ago, 1st Lt. Virgil Hine and 1st Lt. Frank W. Seifert made the first in-flight refuel by running gas down a hose from their DH-4B biplane to another DH-4B on a flight from Los Angeles to San Diego. Though the six-hour flight proved refueling could be done, another flight was made on October 25, 1923, from Lumas, Washington to Tijuana, See SELFRIDGE on page 11A

CLINTON TOWNSHIP — Residents might need to change their yardwork plans to comply with a new noise ordinance passed by the Clinton Township Board of Trustees at their meeting June 26. Introduced earlier in the month, the ordinance outlines several noise sources and defines if, how and when they can be used. Car horns and audible signaling devices are only to be used in emergencies. Unpermitted drums and loudspeakers, and “the keeping of any animal or bird so as to annoy or disturb the quiet, comfort or repose of a reasonable person of ordinary sensibilities because of frequent or long continued noise” are prohibited under the ordinance. Commercial excavation, construction and demolition is prohibited between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m.
