Yesterday, we were able to witness history. The last Martin JRM Mars flying boat stood down for its final resting place at Pima. We were fortunate to have a flyover at the Palm Springs Air Museum. She was followed in chase by our P-51 Man O War. Thank you to Coulson Aviation - Next Gen Firefighting for the fly-by and your support throughout the year. | Palm Springs Air Museum
