Hey I think I saw a picture of that plane on the post office wall. Title read: "Missing, abducted from Midland Texas. Adopted child presumed abducted by birth parents"

I saw that article and on the opposite page there was a story about a neglected child at Lackland AFB something about being forced to sit out in the elements for a extended amount of time.

Though it is outside, the pics that someone just recently posted showed the plane in decent condition. Remember the CAF plane sat outside for a good bit, plus it was wrecked.

I say neglected child all in fun of course. It's great to see something done with the former CAF plane although I would much rather see it in the air. It's just a shame that a plane that there are only 5 (4.5) examples of sits outside.

I know I agree. I did hear that Lackland is atleast looking at plans for an indoor museum. Now I don't know what that means yet, but if they were able to get a building to house the collection, it would be pretty sweet. I have not heard of where though. Anyone in that area know of any land that could be a nearby location.
