For those that didn't make it to BAC Fest 2007 we have news. The Beechcraft Heritage Museum is expanding with a "baby Beech". A Musketeer will be arriving this Winter for prep to add to the floor space in Spring. The goal is to have her ready and on the floor by April's annual board meeting. Speaking of the Board, BHM has added two new members. Our own Brad and Mike will be new voting members on the Museum Board.
All those living near Tullahoma, TN that want to help out in the restoration, please let me know and I will get your contact information to the right people. The BHM Annual Board meeting is April 17th. We would like to have a big gathering of BAC members that weekend, April 18th-20th, for a welcome part for a "baby Beech". Details are provided below....
