The Swift Museum Foundation is the type club for the Globe Swift aircraft, and the raffle is its sole annual fundraiser. Proceeds support operating expense and parts acquisition to keep these vintage gems in the air.
This is a great opportunity to win some cool prizes and support a worthy organization.
I was present a few years ago when a young man claimed the first prize to help him purchase a new engine for his T-35 project. Last year a gent took the $20K cash, and is putting that to good use. Who couldn’t use $20K?
