I'm told this Cessna 310-B is the actual Songbird flown by Kirby Grant in the old TV series "Sky King". Currently residing at the American Wings Museum, Jane's Field (Anoka County Airport) in Blaine, MN.
We took 11 boy scouts over to the museum last Saturday to complete their aviation merit badges. One of the moms told me her son is very interested in our CL club. In fact, we will host an Intro event at our club field later this summer for troop members (whether they participated in the MB or not) and teach them how to preflight, rig up and safely fly a control line model. I'll also organize a similar event for my RC club.
