"My Gal Sal" Update

12 / 31 / 02

            For the past few months we have been working on the interior of the front section.  The work has been going slowly, but this part of a restoration on a 60 year-old airplane that spent 53 years on an icecap in Greenland usually does.  When you look at the before and afters you can see how much work had to be done by our volunteers.  They have done a magnificent job.  We still have a lot more to do; the control cables, hydraulic lines, the antenna system to name a few. 

 In addition to the aircraft restoration, we have been working on the display area where “Sal” is now located.  Until the new building is built, we have tried to set up an area so that visitors will have an opportunity to see the history and the restoration of “My Gal Sal”.  The following pictures give you a good idea of what we have accomplished.
