For many antique aviation aficionados, hearing that an airplane has been acquired by a museum is a sad event. We know that in a very literal sense, that airplane has gone somewhere to die. It will become a static display — slowly decaying beneath its shiny paint, its capabilities eroding until one day it will be impossible for it ever to take flight again.
At the Caldwell Collection, we believe our aircraft should come here not to die, but to fly.
