It is not official yet, but it is looking like the Navy is going to be sending me back to Norfolk in the late Summer/early Fall, so I'm starting to daydream about flying 96V across the US.
The thought occured to me that it might be cool to get a photo of my recently restored airplane back in Wichita where it was born, but I would imagine I would need to coordinate something like that with the folks at Cessna. Obviously alot has changed since 1948.....anything there that would make a good backdrop? Who at Cessana should I try to contact?
Thanks,
Andrew

The most common delivery-point to new owners other than at the old Pawnee plant was at Yingling Aviation, who is still probably the leading Cessna dealer in ICT. They've built new hangars since then, but they might be a good backdrop for a photo.
