Nice way to try and bring awareness to this campaign. I really hope Yankee can succeed in saving the bomber plant. The museum deserves a historic home that honors the history at Willow Run and allows them to house the flying aircraft with the rest of the collection. This would be a great step in that direction.

I really hope this plan works out. I can't imagine a more perfect place for Yankee. As I recall the organization was originally formed with the intent of acquiring, restoring and flying a Ford-built B-24 as tribute to Willow Run.

One can only hope that that is still the objective with them. I for one believe we need more Libs flying out there!
