Garner Field Air Museum

Today I was fortunate enough to meet Mr. Joe Kosler. It all started when I drove to the Air Museum. When I arrived at hangar #1 which houses the museum the closed sign was out. Not being deterred I drove to the other side of the building where the planes enter the hangar and found the door open. I parked Mel and headed inside. The man I met in there said the museum was normally open only on the weekends, but we could go see if we could find Joe. We went to hangar #2 and there we found Joe. Joe is semi-retired and the caretaker, chief mechanic, head pilot and demonstrator of all the planes shown below. His boss owns a company that does modifications to Cessna Citations from all over the world. This is the address of the main company. http://www.sijet.com/aboutSierra_WhoIsSierra.aspx After I looked these planes over Joe opened The Air Museum and let me tour that on my own. Later Joe took me in his truck to the other side of the field where I was able to walk through the Sierra hangers and see them doing modifications on the Citations. There were planes there from around the world and I saw a group of people from South Africa who were having their plane modified. Another plane from Germany was being converted to an air ambulance. The planes Joe takes care of are shown below:
