'Yes, I was first President after Austin Wadsworth. Served two years and
did not run again as I did not believe in president for life (If I would have
been elected..... LOL)

Were/are you a member of NWM?

Sad state for the Museum right now. I do think they will get going again.
Just need to get out of the debt. I heard that the county almost had the FAA
giving a grant to buy the hangars then they would least to museum for $1.00.
Of course this is just a rumor. I am a life member but don't have much
contact with them.

I think they had to many paid people and the labor cost eat them alive...

Lets hope they get things fixed and they can continue there work.

We id Western New York have a 5 year old organization
(www.Vintageaircraftgroup.org) that is located on my airport. So far we are
doing well and have nearly completed a PT-26 with three more to work on.
