After a five-year search for the aircraft that was missing for 76 years, we not only have solved the mystery of where it went, but can now correct historical records, and literature written concerning its demise. Being that there is a substantial amount of material (5 tons) and data, a literal crime scene is preserved with evidence to point out the exact cause of the downing.
It’s paramount to reiterate that this project is out of pocket and the costs are not recuperated. Donations and membership fees are essential to support the mission. Contributions aid in the cost of material, supply, fees, and investigative expenses incurred. We welcome public/new members’ expertise in woodworking, metalworking, computer techies, and part of the planning/ideas of an exhibit.
Objectives for the exhibition:
1. Location – Bull Session has found a home in the 385th Bomb Group Memorial Museum, Perle Luxembourg. Here you can already see major exhibit parts.
2. Ongoing cleaning, stabilizing, and refurbishing of large parts such as landing gear/struts, main wing, and elevators, this is where wood/metal experience is welcome
For the main exhibit, a hall with sections and explanations of the crew, mission, ship, excavation, and artifacts. Sections with items are but, are not limited to; radio room, survival, cockpit, engines, ball turret, and wing structure. It is desired to address the aeronautical importance of the plane and not just as a machine of war, but as aviation advances and the perspective of the time.
