Aero-News Quote of the Day

“One of our main goals in restoring this treasure was not to place it in a museum or keep it tucked away in a hangar. It is my intention, as the custodian of this airplane, to share it with as many people as possible. Our plan is to fly the aircraft from Spokane to Arlington this summer and place the Boeing 40 on display.”

Source: Addison Pemberton of Spokane, WA, restored the only flying Boeing Model 40 in the world and will be bringing it to Arlington 2009, to share its history with the rest of the aviation world.
