Flak-Bait, Ooh Ha Ha!
Manage episode 444505319 series 1930888
During WWII one plane survived more missions than any other in Europe. Named 'Flak-Bait,' this medium bomber was saved from the scrap heap after the war and immediately donated to the Smithsonian. However, public display and outdated restoration techniques have taken a toll on the plane. We're taking you inside our restoration hanger to learn all about how the Museum's conservators are reversing damage and conserving Flak-Bait so visitors can learn about her contributions for many years to come.
Thanks to our guests in this episode:
- Lauren Horelick - Object Conservator, National Air and Space Museum. Head conservator working on Flak-Bait
- Dr. Jeremy Kinney - Associate Director of Research, Collections, and Curatorial Affairs, National Air and Space Museum. Curator in charge of Flak-Bait
