Plane Banner Update
2-10-06
       The MassNews planes are grabbing attention all over Massachusetts. Yesterday, one plane took off from the Beverly Airport at 1:30 pm towing the letter banner MARSHALL'S PANEL SAYS COURTS "MIRED IN CONFUSION" and flew over the following places: Beverly, Peabody, Lynnfield, Wakefield, Woburn, Burlington, Billerica, Lowell where he met up with two more planes, which were towing the two large flying billboards, "JUDGE MARSHALL RESIGN" and "MARSHALL'S COURTS ARE A DISASTER".


       At about 2:30 in the afternoon, we received an email from an elated individual in Lowell who was unfamiliar with MassNews until he saw the planes. He wrote:
       "I just saw your planes over M/A-Com up here in Lowell and wanted to let you know that my wife and I appreciate your efforts. I'll be reading your newsletter now that I know it's there…"
      After meeting over Lowell, the three planes circled in formation over downtown Lowell and then continued on in a formation of three planes over the following places: Tewksbury, Wilmington, Woburn, Stoneham, Medford, Somerville. They proceeded to fly over their regular spots in the metro Boston area like Cambridge and Harvard Square Area, downtown Boston (circling over the State House and the SJC Building), and then flew west over Brighton and Waltham. The first plane returned to its airfield in Beverly and the other two planes continued on in a formation over the Metrowest area, eventually landing in Fitchburg.
