Thursday, March 08, 2007 Aviation museum needs help to acquire B-47 By FlyingNews @ 9:08 AM :: 530 Views :: 0 Comments :: Military Aviation, Warbirds   The Kansas Aviation Museum has an opportunity to acquire a B-47 for display, but may not be able to take advantage of it without a large donation or volunteer help, director Teresa Day said Wednesday. "This would be a huge undertaking," Day said. "The plane is on the fairgrounds at Oklahoma City and they need the space. It has to be gone by the end of April." For the aviation museum to take the plane, which is part of the U.S. Air Force Museum's loan program, it would need to raise about $110,000 to pay a company to disassemble the plane, move it to Wichita, and reassemble it.
