Learn to restore and repair vintage airplanes
EVERETT — The Historic Flight Foundation and Everett Community College are partnering to offer classes in vintage aircraft restoration and repair starting April 16.
The Vintage AeroTech program helps capture history and preserve it
for future generations by assisting students and mid-career professionals in learning the art of restoring historically significant aircraft to flying condition.
The first class is radial aircraft engines offered 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. April 16, 23 and 30 at Paine Field. The cost is $550.
