About 11 Aircraft

| The museum is named the Peddycord Foundation for
Aircraft Conservation (PFAC) in honor of our founder, Mr.Jim Peddycord
who was killed along with his son while practicing for our annual airshow
four years ago. Ours is a flying museum and houses the following:
B-25 Mitchell (finishing up from a 3 year restoration),
TBM Avenger, T-6G
Texan, BT-13, PT13 Stearman,
C-45 (military Beech 18),
Cessna O-2, Cessna
L-19 and a French Broussard. The non-flying a/c are a
F-84F and a
J-2 Piper. (The Piper IS flight worthy, but is one of the last of
49 once built by Piper in the early 1940's and called "Flitfires" as a
play on words against the sleek and graceful
Spitfires then winging over
England. It was part of a war bond drive and was actually flown by Orville
Wright towards the end of his career.) This one stays on the ground!!
We also have numerous display cases of authentic
military uniforms, weapons, flags, etc. that have been donated by museum
members and visitors as well ! We are located at the Asheboro Airport
just off of Hwy 49 west of the city. The telephone # is (336) 625-0170
and the hours are 9a-4p Mon.-Sat. and 12n-4p on Sun. Admission is
5. for adults and there is a discount for Sr. citizens and veterans. |

Wright
Flyer Scale Model
In celebration of the Centennial of Flight, we are
proud to introduce you to this, our finest model ever! Truly museum-quality,
this is a 1/5 scale model of the 1903 Wright Flyer I that made aviation history.
With an 8-foot wingspan and a length over 4 feet, it is not for the casual
enthusiast. Rather, this is for the connoisseur who wants the very best!
Individually hand-built, features of this display piece include a museum-quality
dummy engine with working linkages and turning propeller, hand rigging and metal
turnbuckles, fabric covering, working pilot sling and much more! Perfect for
your home entryway, business lobby... anywhere it can be admired for years to
come! Arrives in two cartons and requires 2-4 hours of assembly.
