They are still there at Carson City, NV airport. They recently added a C-23 Sherpa to the collection. The best time to visit is during the week. Since there is no direct access to their hangar or the ramp your best bet is to stop by EAA Chapter 403 clubhouse. On Fridays we host a lunch from 11am to 12:30pm and are close to their hangar and a good part of their aircraft are on the ramp in front of the clubhouse. They are usually gone by noon on Fridays.

There will be an open house at the airport on June 23 2019 from 8am to 4pm and they will have armor and aircraft on display with armor giving rides. Admission is free to the open house and our chapter will be doing a pancake breakfast.

Their updates are rather infrequent. Probably too busy with important things like operating airplanes. :lol:

Oh that's not that important :lol:

On a side note though, with the ease & accessibility of social media, they should still be able to post things every once in awhile. The social media active museums get a lot of love for doing so and keeping enthusiasts updated!
