It was, they brought her to the hanger in pieces and did the work right in the hanger. Around the plane and restoration project was a mini museum with WWII Army Air Corp memorabilia. Each day I could see the progress, but ever so often I would take my kids and we would go through the museum/hanger to get an up close view. When they were working the project supervisor and one of the eventual pilots would answer questions and talk about the plane.

I bought my little girl a Glacier Girl tee-shirt from the museum gift shop and whenever we would travel around the country if she had it on inevitably we would have one or more people come up and ask about the shirt and the plane.

The family that owned GG sold her and I think it is doing airshows in Europe and around the country now. I miss her she was a sight to see!

Thank you for sharing your experiences. Maybe it will come to an air show around here.
