S. IDAHO TOURISM BOOSTERS HAIL NEW VINTAGE AIRCRAFT MUSEUM
Feb 2, 2006


REXBURG, Idaho (AP) -- A new aircraft museum opens in Rexburg tomorrow.
And city officials are hoping the attraction will help tourism take flight in the region.

The 18-thousand-square-foot Legacy Flight Museum has nine vintage planes from World War Two and the Korean War. It also includes a Russian jet from the Cold War and a replica World War One plane.

All are still flightworthy. One of the planes, a P-51 Mustang fighter owned by John Bagley, is one of only 150 in the world that can still fly.

Bagley built the hangar with his brother Terry to house the planes.

They plan to have an air show in June to showcase the planes.
