Re: [COUPERS] question for Oregon Coupers

Yes, Paul, It did burn down. I'm not sure when, but it was caused by hay that was stored in the hangar catching fire. The history of it can be seen in the movies that they show there and are included in the price of the admission to the Museum.  Pretty awesome, huh!  Did you know about the airplane that flew through the hangar?  Lots of history there.  Well worth a visit.  Tailwinds.....Mary  N52WT -----Original Message----- From: Paul Anton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: ERCOUPE <coupers@topica.com> Date: Saturday, July 15, 2000 04:18 PM Subject: [COUPERS] question for Oregon Coupers Hello all you Oregon Coupers. I just took a run down to Tillamook today to view the blimp hanger and its contents. I can see that there was a second hanger originally. Did it burn down? If so when? I was awed by its size. What a mass of old dried wood should it ever catch fire. And all those priceless planes inside. They wanted to keep my Coupe and give me the P-38 but I told them I couldn't afford the gas. <G> Cheers: Paul N2273H The visibility was at least 100 miles what a fine day for flying. ________________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe from this list please send mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___________________________________________________________ T O P I C A  The Email You Want. http://www.topica.com/t/16 Newsletters, Tips and Discussions on Your Favorite Topics ________________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe from this list please send mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___________________________________________________________ T O P I C A The Email You Want. http://www.topica.com/t/16 Newsletters, Tips and Discussions on Your Favorite Topics
