Part 3 - Line 4a

FHCAM RESTORES PLANES IN FRONT OF MUSEUM ATTENDEES. THESE PLANES ARE ON DISPLAY AT THE MUSEUM DURING AND AFTER RESTORATION. RESTORATION AND MAINTENANCE OF THE ASSETS CONTINUED WHILE THE MUSEUM WAS CLOSED AS A RESULT OF COVID-19, DESCRIBED BELOW, AND TO PRESERVE THE ASSETS UNTIL THEIR ULTIMATE DISPOSITION IN 2022.


FHCAM PROVIDES EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMMING ASSOCIATED WITH THE VINTAGE AIRCRAFT. THIS INCLUDES TOURS BY DOCENTS WHO RECEIVE TRAINING IN THE HISTORICAL, SOCIETAL, TECHNOLOGICAL AND SCIENTIFIC CONTEXT OF THE COLLECTION. IN ADDITION TO REGULAR MUSEUM ATTENDANCE, FHCAM HOLDS SUMMER CAMPS AND FIELD TRIPS FOR SCHOOL-AGE CHILDREN. IN MARCH 2020, THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION CATEGORIZED COVID-19 AS A GLOBAL PANDEMIC, PROMPTING MANY NATIONAL, REGIONAL, AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS TO IMPLEMENT PREVENTATIVE OR PROTECTIVE MEASURES, SUCH AS TRAVEL AND BUSINESS RESTRICTIONS, TEMPORARY STORE CLOSURES, AND WIDE-SWEEPING QUARANTINES AND STAY-AT-HOME ORDERS. AS A RESULT OF THE SPREAD OF COVID-19 AND AT THE GOVERNMENT'S DIRECTION, THE MUSEUM CLOSED TO THE PUBLIC EFFECTIVE MARCH 6, 2020 FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE YEAR AND THROUGH 2021, TO BE REASSESSED AT A LATER TIME. UPON REASSESSMENT, THE MUSEUM REMAINED CLOSED AND ALL ASSETS WERE SOLD DURING 2022.


FHCAM HOSTS YEAR-ROUND EVENTS TO FACILITATE THE PRESENTATION OF THE AIRCRAFT AND ARTIFACTS OF THE COLLECTION TO THE PUBLIC. EACH OF OUR FLYING EVENTS HAS AN EDUCATIONAL COMPONENT WHERE GUEST SPEAKERS COME IN TO TALK ABOUT SELECT ARTIFACTS. ALL EVENTS WERE PUT ON HOLD STARTING MARCH 6, 2020 THROUGH DECEMBER 31, 2021 AS A RESULT OF COVID-19 DISCUSSED ABOVE. THESE EVENTS NEVER RESUMED IN 2022 AS A RESULT OF THE DECISION TO DISPOSE OF ALL ASSETS DURING 2022.
