Jack McCloy, the lead maintenance mechanic working on Kermit Week's vintage aircraft at Fantasy of Flight, gives an overview of the planes he is currently working on, to get flight ready.

From the video vault... You Are There! Come fly another Grumman airplane with me today. This time its the Duck. Part one is pre-flight inspection and a cockpit tour. Part two we start her up... take a deep breath, cause there's going to be some smoke. Part three, we take off. We'll do some flying and maybe even take her down on the nearby lake.

Thankfully, I have some great employees here at Fantasy of Flight. I called on my Aircraft Maintenance lead, Jack McCloy, to see if he could help me out. The following is what transpired. It's all in good humor to hopefully lighten the mood. | Kermit Weeks

I learned the hard way that the aviation museum industry will never pay the light bill, so I am being led to go after the rest of the planet! One day, I hope to create a win-win situation and build something NO ONE in the aviation industry will ever attempt, which will blow away th
