Things are not looking good @ the Airline History Museum.

This Kansas City based museum is about to be evicted from its hangar. http://www.conniesurvivors.com/1-connie ... SEP17-2022 Can the scrap man be far behind?? Maybe they can find a buyer for the Connie, the DC-3 and the Martin but the L 1011 will be history.

Thanks Pat,

This museum has a substantial collection - perhaps in another hangar - that includes a Northrop Delta and the structural parts to a Curtiss Condor. Web site and Facebook entries suggest the museum is still active.

I'd love to see someone, anyone do something with the Northrop.
While it's not the best looking of the family, it would be great to see it go to one of the collections that flies its aircraft.
Based on photos,it looks reasonably decent...unless there is terminal corrosion somewhere.

Perhaps they could be persuade to sell or give it to someone who can give it the attention deserves...The prospect of a flying '30s Northrop is interesting.
