Nice. Really nice. The Cavanagh Flight Museum at Addison, Texas says on
their website: Flying Directions: The museum is located at ADS, Addison Airport and is East of the runway on taxiway "U". Limited aircraft parking is available on our ramp, please call in advance to check availability. The "call in advance" is definitely recommended, and you might want to add that to the next revision of your list.

Jay,
An excellent site. Nice work. One question, shouldn't the Ottumwa, Iowa museum be listed as Blakesburg?

Well, good point. I went with Ottumwa because their webpage (http://www.aaa-apm.org/) lists their location as "just West of Ottumwa," instead of "Blakesburg." But, in retrospect, "Blakesburg" makes more sense. (And the name has become pretty well-known in the aviation community...)

Don't know if you have or not but you might want to put a copyright
on that document. How does one do that? Just put the little claim at the bottom of the page, or is there still a "real" way to do it? Thanks for compiling the list, now who's going to visit all of them first? Ready. Go! I smell a contest. Set a deadline, get a small entrance fee ($100 is small for pilots). I was tempted to flight plan a trip to all of them, using Destination Direct. I wonder how many miles/days it would take? Anyone up to a flight-planning challenge? -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
