If you want to see what the original exhibition focused upon, the
info is available at www.afa.org/media/enolagay/chrono.asp. From
reading the rather well documented chronology, and supporting memos
and meeting records, that the AFA includes in their site, it is
apparent that Harwit's (Museum director) claims that the concerns
raised "were not true" is itself an incorrect (at best) or downright
dishonest (at worst) assertion;

This tracks my recollection of the affair.

I did a lot of research at NASM in the 1980s and 1990s. Mr. Harwit's
administration was poisonous in a lot of ways, most especially to the
veterans on the staff. When Mr. Harwit was replaced, the general
feeling I picked up was one of delight.

all the best -- Dan Ford
