Lecture at the Museum of Flight Recreating & Celebrating the 1924 Douglas World Cruisers Achievements By "Around the World" Bob Dempster
Bob is a visionary character never put off by seemingly impossible odds and reckons we should have a World Cruiser to show in the Museum of Flight. The Smithsonian and Santa Monica museums have the surviving originals and are not about to give them up. Undaunted and after extensive historical and technical research and community involvement Bob has undertaken to build a brand new one from the original Douglas drawings, and fly it round the world and afterwards will donate the recreated "Seattle II" to the MOF. So, note the date and the time and join us to hear all about the historical 1924 flights and the resurrection from the dusty Douglas drawings of the brand new Seattle II World Cruiser right, in Bob’s Renton Airport Hanger. Admission is free and all are welcome. |
