Historic plane to return home
from The Kansan
Mechanics from Wichita Air Services at Kansas' Newton City/County airport put pieces of history back together, restoring a classic 1930s airplane.
The plane "went through a lot of owners," Don Stancer, lead mechanic at Wichita Air Services, said.
"It's been around," Leeb Vonfange, shop manager, said.
Along with several other mechanics, they restored a 1937 Lockheed Electra 10A, a model similar to what Amelia Earhart flew on her final, ill-fated trip. more
