Flying Heritage B-25 arriving at Paine Field

Flying Heritage Collection invites you to view the latest addition to an already amazing collec-tion of WWII artifacts and aircraft – the North American B-25 bomber. The glass-nosed B-25 is a North American twin-engine medium bomber, used by a wide range of allied air forces during World War II. Every aspect of this aircraft has been fully restored to its original World War II condition. Painted in the wartime colors and design of the 490th Bomb Squadron, this aircraft is a tribute to Arnold Spielberg, the father of film legend Steven Spielberg. Arnold was a member of the 490th Squadron during the war. This B-25 will take flight along with the B-25 from Historic Flight on Free Fly Day, Saturday, July 16.

Vintage Aircraft Weekend is September 2 at Paine Field www.painefield.com

2011 Mukilteo Car Show

The Second Annual Mukilteo Car Show, presented by the Mukilteo Chamber of Commerce, was a huge success with over 100 amazing cars, 1,000 atten-dees and beautiful weather. John Sessions hosted the event at the Historic Flight Foundation on Paine Field. It was a great opportunity to enjoy both the planes and the cars. The venue set this Car Show apart from the other car shows. The show was a very successful benefit for the Mukilteo Food Bank.

Dennis Hill (shown here with wife Ellie and daughter Maddie), Captain in the Fire department, recently celebrated his 34th year in the fire service. His entire career has been with the Paine Field organization.

If you see Captain Hill, take a moment to say thanks for his many years of service. Dennis is great at pro-viding Paine Field history and events; he has been at the Airport longer than any other employee

Parking at Paine Field Airport tenants and visitors can expect to see new signs around the Airport over the coming weeks re-minding them about parking restrictions at Paine Field. Parking is allowed only in designated lots by authorized vehicles. No parking is allowed in all other areas of the airport without written approval. Parking on airport streets is prohibited with the ex-

ception of approximately 1,000’ feet of designated

curbside parking on 109th Street west of 31st Ave.

Most parking lots are leased to business tenants of

adjacent buildings and are limited to use by those

tenants and their customers. Hangar tenants are

allowed to park in their hangars and in specifically

designated stalls adjacent to the hangars. Tempo-

rary signage is used to designate allowed parking

areas for special events like General Aviation Days

and Vintage Aircraft weekend.
