The latest issue of the Friends Journal included a picture of the Reaper and advised that they expect to place it on display in the Modern Flight Gallery during January of 2010. It will replace the current Predator which will be moved to the Warrior Airmen exhibit in the Cold War Gallery.

The Reaper is the Museum's newest acquisition.

Pat,

It came yesterday along with the 2010 Calendar ... Since I'm only about 20 miles from the Museum ... your's should be there any day.

Hi Jerry, It did arrive today and it looks like an outstanding issue. Jerry Rep does a great job with the Journal.

Your right about that ... both he and Joe King put a lot of time into it. .... With the Doolittle Raiders and the Renovation of the Korean Gallery and the activities planned for that it looks a pretty active spring.
