Matt Finnegan  Fresno, California	I started a 501c-approved Air Museum here in Fresno Ca. I have never done anything like this so I am wondering if any of you out there could help me. I am trying to find out what is the best way to get donations. Also I am trying to put together a Board of Directors. So if any of you are interested in that I am looking for people with experience in museums and fundraising. If you are interested please e-mail me at matt@fresnoairmuseum.com and if any of you know someone or would like to make a donation, please e-mail me as well. 04/17/2006 @ 07:44 [ref: 4974]

Kathy Morgan  Palm Harbor, Florida	You may be interested in some of the items from my father's collection. My father was a Braniff International captain for 33 years and a contributing editor to Flying Magazine for 20 years. He recently passed away and I am disposing of his vast aviation collection, at his request. I would be happy to provide you with further details and pictures from this unique collection. Please note the complete set of Jane\'s All the World\'s Aircraft, with many editions autographed by the editor. The 1909 edition includes a handwritten letter from Fred Jane. You may email for lists of books (many autographed editions,) memorabilia and original artwork. Thank you, Kathy Morgan 07/06/2005 @ 13:33 [ref: 4210]
Ascher Ward  Van Nuys, California	My name is Ascher Ward and I have been an entrepreneur in the field of rare aircraft for the past 50years. I am writing to you because I have two extremely unique airplanes that may be of interest to you and your museum. I have a Sipa Jet 200 which I have owned for the past 12 years. It is the first civillian turbojet to enter production for general aviation. This aircraft can be verified by the Smithsonian. Of the seven aircraft only two remain, mine and one in France which is also owned by a private collector and is not for sale. Sipa had hoped to also reach the military market as a trainer or a liason aircraft. The second aircraft I have is a full scale replica of the original Boeing P12. There are no originals left in existence and this replica is the only example of this plane. It was built by the late Thomas Crowder approximately 20 years ago. It was built from copies of the original engineering drawings held in the archives at the Smithsonian. The aircraft has an early 1340 Pratt Whittney engine this is the same that is in the original P12. I have done many trades with the United States Air force Museum in Dayton, Ohio. The museum director at that time was Colonel Richard Upstrom. I acquired rare airplanes which the museum needed for their collection. For example: DeHavilland mosquito, DeHavilland Repedie, Northrup c-125, Lockheed Loadstar Fokker D-7 (original) this aircraft belonged to the late Cole Palen. Ryan STA (Air Force version) Fairchild C-82 (Packet), Mig 21, Lockheed F-104 which is on display at the entrance to the museum mounted on a pole. There were countless other aircraft which went across the country to various other Air Force Museums under "The Heritage Program". The aircrafts were exchanged for other aircraft which was surpluss to their needs, and of interest to me. The exchange was then made. I will provide photos on request. Should you have an interest in a purchase or an exchange, for an aircraft or aircrafts which are surpluss to you, perhaps we can work out a favorable exchange.

Bob Little  fresno, California	I have lived here in Fresno for over 50 years. Up to just the last five or so years those aircraft looked liked real bad. But now those guy have a world class display. I have driven by the base and are blinded by the reflection of the sun off the 2 saber jets.The base also has the best looking f-4 I have ever seen.It is about time we have a place to go and see great looking airplanes. 12/31/2000 @ 19:28 [ref: 714]
