HFC has had to put 3 A/C in storage to make room for the mossie and some other new exhibits. The P-47, Hurricane, and Mig-29 are in storage, the Curtis Jenny is at Century Aviation to get new fabric. No word on the ME-262. FHC has gotten permission for a 3rd hangar, it will be large enough to fit a 737 in it. They also have a F-105G wild weasel on loan from the Air Force, it takes up quite a bit of space. There is a new exhibit under construction opening March 4th on the causes of war with numerous interactive displays.

Thanks for the information. There's also whispers of the F-86A and P-38 restorations FHC have, along with the ME262, that could finally be at Paine Field this year. Will the third hangar be ready in time for Skyfair?

Doesn't FHC have the former CAF P-38 under restoration at West Pac?

Yep...here is an interesting tidbit about the aircraft from several years ago, where FHC is noted at the time as being interested in tracking down its potential original WWII 370th FG markings: http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/showthread.php?t=16999 (This particular aircraft has been registered to Vulcan (FHC) for quite some time now.)

Another P-38J has also been tied to FHC and Westpac, that being the Pacific Theatre combat-vet "Jandina III", though it has yet to show up anywhere in the FAA registry.

I was assuming that FHC would acquire White 33 in the end.

Is that not owned by Slattery?
