Thanks to everyone who came out, it was a lot of fun. Maybe the next WIX Incursion should be the Cradle Of Aviation Museum.

It's always good to see photos of WIXers! For junior types like me, could someone please put names to the faces?

My camera is kaput but I might have some pics in the archives. I'll see what I can find.

Thank you Scott, I'd be grateful to see what you have. I see a model of her in my future!

Zac, here's some I took a few years back.

And here's a look back as it was under restoration.

If you are using the restored N13Y photos for any historical reference or for for model building, be careful. There are errors in this restored paint scheme.
The "45" on each side of the original 1949 paint scheme on the aircraft are different from each other. NEAM used the same stencil for both, so that is inaccurate.
The gear doors should be natural metal, not green.
Both of these errors can be seen in the vintage photos in my albums.
Other than that, enjoy!

Thank you Jerry, for the photos and the heads-up. Fortunately my plan is to model the preserved aircraft as I'm strange like that!
