After more than 10 years of sitting outside, unprotected, in the museum’s storage area, the project to restore the museum’s A7-D Corsair II aircraft has begun!
The project goal is to restore the aircraft to a suitable quality level for static display of the aircraft.
The project began with the procurement of replacement nose and main tires. The tire were mounted on their respective wheel assemblies after the wheel assemblies were cleaned and painted.
Periodic status updates will be provided to keep you informed about the progress of the project. The all-volunteer restoration team believes the project will be a multi-year endeavor. Project work is typically done on Tuesdays and Thursdays within the museum’s restoration hangar.
