SPONSOR AN AIRCRAFT

We realize that some of you have favorites. The fixed cost to stage a classic aircraft often exceeds $50,000 per year. And if you actually fly it, the operating cost, particularly for the Rolls Royce Merlin–powered aircraft and jets, can exceed $3,000 per hour. To help defray the expenses of showing and flying your favorite aircraft, perhaps you would like to channel your generosity in that direction. For each gift of $5,000, we will add the name of the donor or designee to the “Flight Crew” for that aircraft. The current crew manifest will be placed on board whenever the aircraft goes “wheels up.” E-mail donate@historicflight.org for more info.

AIRCRAFT

Historic Flight has been approached by generous individuals concerning outright donation of an aircraft, or perhaps its inclusion in a temporary display. These offers joyfully demonstrate a donor’s commitment to aviation heritage. Historic Flight welcomes the opportunity to develop an arrangement beneficial to the donor and consistent with its programs.

AVIATION MEMORABILIA

Similarly, if log books, maintenance manuals, uniforms, tools, flying attire, equipment and aviation books no longer have a place in your home, hangar, or the home or hangar of a relative, they might be of continuing benefit to historians and enthusiasts. Historic Flight offers its library and collection of memorabilia and artifacts in a public reading room and archive.

VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES

Your passion and interest are always appreciated! Whether as a tour guide, marshal or administrator, you can play a role that’s as educational and exciting for you as it is for us. To learn more about volunteering at Kilo-6, e-mail volunteer@historicflight.org.

    I am a retired Boeing employee and just might be able to help volunteer somehow.

    No A&P license–sorry.

    I was an instructor and inspector for most of my 28.5 years at the Bee.

    Sure. Come see us. Good news and bad news. Good news. The coffee is 5 cents. Bad news. It isn’t worth it. But the planes are priceless. F, S, Sun., 10-6.

    What experimental type ratings do you hold? We’d like to help you find opportunities in the vintage aircraft community. JTS

    We (2 Mustangs and a Mitchell) were getting organized prior to a show at Boeing Field for the Museum of Flight. It was their gala fundraiser featuring a beautiful B-17. The tower allowed us to do about as much as the law allows while below the approach path to SeaTac and the crowd was most appreciative. We will add you to our list for email announcements. Right now the news is that we’ll be offering flying experiences throughout the 4th of July weekend. 10-6. Free BBQ with a ride. We’ll fly the Electra, B-25 and Beaver. JTS
