Larry,
I'll go! I worked on that Tri-Motor when we rebuilt the B-25 down here
in Burlington. June 16th, 1973 we had extremely high winds that flipped
the Ford on its back and we spent the next year replacing ribs and
re-skinning. (It also our wedding day which is why I remember the day.)
The museum is not to be missed if you have the faintest regard for aviation.
Good suggestion,
Dave W.
