"Operation Hangar"

The American Aeronautical Foundation is currently trying to raise funds to build a hanger to get
our aircraft out of the salt air here in Camarillo, Ca and have a permanent, indoor
facility. We are currently looking for donations, donations-in-kind and Grants to
achieve this goal. We have acquired 2 acres of land at the Camarillo Airport for this
project and now are awaiting the funding to bring the hangar to life.

The hangar will house our fleet of 3 current aircraft along with room for our offices to
be brought to the flightline, combining our Flight Scheduling, Maintenance and
aircraft under one roof.

We are in need of your help. You, the public, are the saviors of these great aircraft,
providing the funding to keep us flying each year by purchasing tickets for rides, airshow
admissions, and keeping the interest alive to share with our children.

We are not opening a general museum hangar, but rather a maintenance hangar with offices
to facilitate scheduling and maintaining these vintage warbirds. We are a flying
museum, and to keep the cost of preserving these aircraft to a minimum, an
indoor "nest" is required.

We have applied for Government Grants, but they are not enough to cover the
costs of building. If anyone, company or organization is interested in donating
to this great cause, please e-mail us at john.garlinger@aafgroup.org .

There are a many different ways we may are able to return the favor of your gift, such as offering
special ride days for you, your company or employees, we can do fly-overs at personal or corporate events
, private airshows and more. Imagine highlighting your event with your own B-25 or C-47 for the day!

Please let us know if you are interested in  helping and we will contact you shortly.

Additional facility information will be posted as it becomes available.
