Does anyone know of an account of the building of the Martin MB-2 Reproduction for the National Museum of the United States Air Force? I have looked on line a few times and never really came across anything but the Museum's own site and brief description.

It is my understanding that it was done by Martin Aircraft.

That is incorrect. It was built by a restoration facility in either Washington State or Oregon. I have run across their website several times but cannot remember their name. There are lots of shots of the building.

I think they are located in Wenachee, Washington.
