Aviation Weekend

September 17, 2022 — The American Heritage Museum in Hudson, Massachusetts had a busy Saturday. They featured two World War I planes, one original, the other a replica, and both planes were flown. Later, there was a WWI battle reenactment featuring a WWI M1917 tank. As if that were not enough, over one hundred Model A Fords from the Ford Model A Regional Auto Show were invited. On top of all that, their three museums, American Heritage, Historic Aviation Hangar and Classic Automobile Barn were open. On Sunday, they repeated all except the appearance by the Model A's.

The two World War I planes were a Nieuport 28, restored but 80 per cent original, and a replica of a SPAD VII. Both planes were flown, and while they were on the ground, spectators were allowed to give them a close inspection while experts described their attributes and answered questions. Many photos of the planes, Model A's, and videos of the planes in flight at this link:
