New Children's Aviation Museum needs a Display Aircraft

Thu May 12, 2011 6:13 pm

Thank you for this forum. We are new to this group. We are creating a Children's Aviaion Museum in Prescott, Arizona. Small, themed, lots of 1/4 scale models.
We would like a full aircraft to display in the front of the building. Anything will work, commercial or warbird, something like a Lockheed Harpoon or Beech 18 would fit well, but again, anything will work. No engines needed, props would be nice. We have a very small budget for it, we are a non-profit, with a 501(c)(3).
Can anyone help or direct us to salvage yards, etc??
Thank you,
Steve

You might want to consider contacting the Pima Air and Space Museum (http://www.pimaair.org) in Tucson. I would guess they are fairly well connected with the scrapyards in the area and may be able to point you in the right direction.

When you do get one displayed, please contact me. I would like to add your museum to the Locator...
