Longtime member dies
Gene Regester, Martin Company photographer and longtime Museum supporter, has died. Gene was a valuable source of information on the history of the company and helped organize many of our photographic files.
Here is a link to an interview Gene gave in 2010 about his brush with a "UFO."

Adopt one of our aircraft
For the first time, the aircraft of the Glenn L. Martin
Maryland Aviation Museum will be available—for adoption. The aircraft can’t be
taken home, and adopters won’t be responsible for care of the aircraft. Funds
raised will help maintain the aircraft on display at Strawberry Point.
Thirteen of the museum’s aircraft are available for
adoption, including the Martin 4-O-4 airliner, the UH-1M Huey helicopter and
the F-100F Super Sabre. For a $25 donation, donors receive a personalized
adoption certificate and a fact sheet about the aircraft they have adopted. They also receive recognition on the website. Adoptions are good for one year and are suggested for the aviation fan, all
occasions (Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, birthdays, graduation, etc.) or to honor
someone special.
Visit the museum’s website www.mdairmuseum.org/flight-line.html
to download a form or adopt and aircraft online.
