Pat Macha - Expert wreck finder and co-author of the book
Aircraft Wrecks in the Mountains and Deserts of California now in its third edition. WHAT:
Pat, Peter and Tony will share their experiences with us researching and locating historical crash sites. Find out why the Aviation Archaeologist's best friend is a good pair of hiking boots! Books are available for sale in the gift shop. WHEN:
Saturday, August 1, 2009; 10:00 am - 12:00 pm. The presentation will be followed by a question and answer period, book signing, and flight demonstration of our Vought F4U-1A Corsair! WHERE:
Planes of Fame Air Museum
7000 Merrill Avenue, Chino, CA 91710
WHY:
Mysteries of aviation archaeology remain unresolved to this day. Most often, after accident investigation concludes, these locations remain undisturbed. Who doesn't want to find a Corsair and see one fly today?
On the first Saturday of every month Planes of Fame Air Museum, a 501(c)(3), hosts a Flying Day featuring an historically significant aircraft from our extensive WWII flyable collection. We present an expert panel discussion culminating in a flight demonstration. Planes of Fame Air Museum restores, displays, and flies aircraft to educate and inspire current and future generations. View our website at www.planesoffame.org for more information.
