‘Flagship Detroit’ at GMU this weekend

By Janice Wood · March 18, 2010 ·

FlagshipDetroit

The recently restored “Flagship Detroit,” a DC-3 delivered to American Airlines in 1937, will be on display at Greenville Downtown Airport (GMU) in South Carolina March 21-22.

Owned and operated by a private volunteer foundation, the aircraft has recently completed a major restoration to return the exterior and interior to the original configuration. Members of the Flagship Detroit Foundation will be on hand to provide tours and answer questions about this historic aircraft. After the airshow, an opportunity to join the foundation and enjoy a “Ride Back in Time” (local flight) will be available.

For more information: FlagshipDetroit.org or 864-444-4181.
