TRI-CITY AIRPORT, SAN BERNARDINO

Refer to this link for some great information and pictures of Tri-City Airport.

The following was sent to me by a site user from El Monte, CA:

"Location: El Monte, CA
Entity: Joe Brier
Information: He and his wife Pinky owned the Tri-City airport in San Bernardino, CA until it closed. He is deceased."

Joe Brier was a military pilot who signed the Register in 1932. Anyone know about pilot Brier and his flying activities? Please use this FORM to let me know. The website linked above says he later developed heart trouble and was grounded.
