Support for the Restoration of Lancaster KB882

I have a BIG favour to ask of the Warbird Enthusiast Community:

Last night I received an email from my internal contact at the City of Edmundston, NB requesting that I prepare a final and comprehensive presentation to their City Council on Monday February 27th. The intent is to provide members a concentrated and complete image of the historical importance of KB882 to Canada, the Commonwealth and the World from an engineering, manufacturing, social, military, aviation and preservation perspective. This should be the final step in securing funding, establishing a non-profit legal entity so that more WORK can begin.

I ask that any of you who share the vision contact the person noted below via email to show them that there is INTERNATIONAL interest in this warbird.

Sincerely,

Thanks everyone!

I spoke to Mychele this morning – about 40 emails of support received thus far.

Much appreciation to everyone who has taken the time to do this for us. I hope they get a few hundred by February 27th!

Cheers,
Troy

Oh, bo*%ocks. I have just read Troy’s gender corrector. Too late. I hope she doesn’t get upset easily.
