Jimmy Buffett Donated Aircraft

Tue Sep 05, 2023 9:50 pm

Don't know if this is old news or not per se, seeing we have some sleuths on here that can figure out where aircraft are coming from, moving to, etc.

Buffett donated a Boeing Stearman 75-8413 and a Grumman Goose 1061 to the USS Alabama Battleship Memorial Park in 2022 anonymously. With his passing the museum has let the cat out of the bag. There are a few pictures of the two birds mentioned in the article.

Very nice of him to donate them. Wish he had given them the Albatross and sold the Goose. The Goose is getting more difficult to find and now this one no longer flies.
