What are the current plans for Swamp Ghost? Which of these four in order of desirability are most likely?
Return to flying status
Restoration for museum display
As is display like the Hellcats from a few years ago
Bits & pieces stashed away forever like The Swoose

That question can be answered, following the
answers to:
1) The Lindberg Baby Kidnapping
2) JFK Assassination
3) How may licks does it take to get to the
center of a Tootsie Pop?
I don't know what is in store for Swamp Ghost, nor
do any of our contacts. Heck, we're not even totally
sure about who is behind the whole thing. Talk about
major hush-hush.

It's nice to see there are girls interested in vintage aircraft. Do you like all planes or just the bombers.
