The Museum hosted state officials Friday and gave them a quick tour of the museum and Strawberry Point static line. Comptroller Peter Franchot, whose father was a WWII airman, got a close-up look at all the things the Museum is doing.  Joining him were state Sens. Kathy Szeliga and J.B. Jennings.  All were impressed what the all-volunteer organization had accomplished and offered encouragement for its future.
