Cavanaugh Flight Museum UH-34D 150213

[edit]

The Cavanaugh Flight Museum sadly closed permanently on 1 January 2024, and announced that its aircraft would be moved to North Texas Regional Airport in Denison, Texas, but did not disclose any plan to return the collection to public display.[1] Assuming that this aircraft is technically on permanent loan from the Navy like most other former Navy aircraft that remain in the country, I presume that the Navy won't allow it to be moved to Denison to be stashed in a hangar or left on the ramp; in other words, in the absence of a plan to reopen the Cavanaugh in Denison, I suspect that the Navy will reclaim 150213 and move it elsewhere. If anyone has any verifiable information on the aircraft's fate, please comment or edit the article. Carguychris (talk) 18:21, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Benguttery: Your edit indicates that the aircraft was moved to the FWAM, which is great news, and I believe you, but better citations are needed. The first link doesn't positively identify the individual aircraft or say that it's from the Cavanaugh, and the second link gives me a 404 error.
