This couple got engaged at Sun ‘n Fun 24

This couple got engaged right on the warbird ramp at #SNF24 and were then invited into the Globemaster III for an engagement photo. We've heard of big proposals, but over half a million pounds of Air Force hardware is next level! Let's all wish the happy couple a future as big as the C-17! Dan Faenza
