"Hauff says that the Museum has never had a request like this, but that they were happy to help. "Any way that our museum can help, we will."

I'm sure our restorations shops would be able to jump in and make the parts, better than new no less.

There are F-18s at Davis Monthan that have been retired. Why not use parts from those?

So the other F-18 would have it's nose gear door flapping in the wind on one hinge?
