<p>In Montague, Michigan, the High School and county educators are investigating adding an aviation curriculum. To inspire interest before school lets out for summer (June 14), we would like to display an aircraft on the lawn or indoors, for one or two days.

<p>The long-neglected Montague airfield, Ottiger Field, is being restored by me, and is safe now but primitive. It is two miles north of the HS. Trailers and talent are available here to transport. See Facebook, Ottiger Field since 1950.</p>

<p>I am a forum newbie, and could not get the member search to work as I expected. Doing what I can! Appreciate all responses. I am one of a dozen aviation geeks trying to get this started, and may end up being the build leader at the school. I have reviewed the off-the-shelf curriculum and press releases of similar projects, and am an experienced builder.</p>
