It was an unforgettable moment as U.S. Army veteran Carl May climbed back in the pilot's seat for his 100th birthday.
World War II Army veteran Carl May celebrated his 100th birthday by climbing back in the pilot's seat.
"I flew B-26s for 32 missions and then I flew light airplanes out of Orly field in Paris," he said. "I enjoyed it very much." Once May returned home from the Army, he started a life with his wife that blossomed into 13 children, 31 grandchildren, and 40 great grandchildren. They were married for 65 years before her passing. Still, May lives a self-sufficient life, drives every day, and works on crafting magnificent bowls in his cellar.
His extended family decided to celebrate with a massive 100th birthday party on March 25, 2023. The Honor Guard even presented him with a flag. But absent from the festivities was a planned airplane flight, which had been canceled due to inclement weather.& ResortMany of his family members returned for a second celebration to see the centenarian take off and land in style.
