Default Update on the Monino Fire

Hey.

I don't know which group I saw the subject in so I'm responding to all
three I could think of. This is from the Aero-News Network, a snippet
from a longer article about an effort to build operational replicas of
pre-WW2 Russian planes...

...as previously reported in Aero-News, a fire ignited by a welder destroyed a building
at the Air Forces Museum at Monino that was home to a collection of 20th Century
aero engines, and worse, contained tens of thousands of irreplaceable documents.
The best the firefighters could do was keep the damage contained to that single building.
