Aero-Linx!

Scouring the information super airways can sometimes be a tough, if educational, task for the Aero-News staff... but it also allows us to check out some truly neat and exciting sites, so it's not that bad a gig. On any given day, we may check dozens (and often hundreds) of different sources for story ideas, and facts confirmation. And, as is the nature of our business, much of this is done on the Internet.

The ANN gang decided we probably shouldn't keep some of the neat sites, info resources, and organizations we've discovered to ourselves... so we decided to bring you Aero-Linx. These are the sites that WE check out -- when we need added perspective, a new spin on a day's topic... or just want to escape into cyber-aero-space for awhile.

Look for some of our favorite sites, coming each day to ANN via Aero-Linx. Suggestions for future Aero-Linx segments are always welcome, as well.

Aero Linx: The Aviation Museum of Kentucky

Since its founding in 1978, members of the Kentucky Aviation History Roundtable have dreamed of an aviation museum. To this end, the group was incorporated in 1981 as the Kentucky Aviation History Round Table. 1984 the IRS granted 501 (c)(3) tax-exempt status. On 10/7/1991, the name was amended and changed to The Aviation Museum of Kentucky, Inc. On April 5, 1994, the General Assembly designated the Kentucky Aviation Hall of Fame as the Commonwealth's official Aviation Hall of Fame. On April 15, 1995, the dream came true, and the Museum first opened its doors to the public with the help of the Dolittle Raiders annual convention held at the Museum.
