Donald has saved a few items when he worked with the two airlines. I am going to see my dad this weekend at Van Buren Arkansas. Is there anyway that we could come up Saturday the 21st for him to donate the items to the museum. He would like to talk to someone that worked with Central airlines in the early days.
