HANGAR HAPPENIN'S - August, 2008

This past month saw the first C-47 Members Only Flex Ride. This ride flew the route over downtown Detroit, so we get to see the trip through two vantage points. Al Hudson, from the Ground Equipment crew, brings his set of photos. Also on hand to document this flight was "Photo Dave" Stonoski, with his photographs.

July also saw the completion of the restoration of the historic Schoolhouse, the first building of our new museum's campus. Fittingly, to "top it off", the cupola, built by Ken Chapin, was hoisted to the roof and secured in place. Dwight Koslowski (who ??) was on hand to record this historic event.

There are also photographs of the B-24 fuselage parts that we now own, that will be the basis for the full scale B-24 exhibit planned for the new museum.

Installation of new officers, employees, and the return of Connie's corner are more photos from the August issue of our newsletter.
