Well, someone should tell the folks at the Olympia Flight Museum that, becuase they're telling people those birds will be at the fly-in in June, like last year...

I stand correct, I had been told by volunteers there earlier this year they were coming, but I just went by there and confirmed they are NOT coming to Olympia this year.
Darn.

Wow, its looking really great!

I'm digging through the museum's collection of photos to see if I can find any shots of the original plane on the ramp here. Probably a long shot but it sure would be cool to find one!

the American Aero Services team is doing all application of the nose art and markings and Mr. Velasco is not involved. The team effort is getting the job done in record time with a high level of quality and durability to withstand the rigors of touring.

Love the new look!!!!!!! Are they eventually going to do 909 in something else???? They were up here last yr or the yr before and during one of the ride flights in 909, an engine let go and had to be shut down. Now that would have been a ride, wish I was on it.

Lynn,

We'll be arriving at Love Field at Frontiers of Flight Museum at 3 PM on the 4th. Due to the dense traffic at the airport, I would expect us to do a straight-in arrival without an overhead approach.
