Nobody has asked for holes to be cut into any aircraft. You are
making things up as you go along.


If the museum's docents are correct, the only way that the flight deck of
the Goose would be wheelchair accessible (mother of all ironies) is with an
elevator or some other accomodation, which would require alterations to the
airplane.

That's where the part about cutting holes in the aircraft come from.

Now, the thing about Evergreen is, having seen the place it's ironic to hear
the suggestion that they're short on money. Nevertheless, last time we were
there they had a wish-board asking people to donate VCRs (specifically four
head, stereo), projectors and other odds and ends. Rather ironic when
you're in line to pay $12 to see the Goose, an SR-71 and a bf109, an F-15,
tanks, jets, a Titan missile, they're building an IMAX theater, and they're
asking for donations.
