[ARC5] Aircraft Recovery- Lake Michigan

[Todd, KA1KAQ]

Midway airport south of Chicago that has the nice presentation about the
training fleet. They also have one of the recovered SBD aircraft on
display, hanging from the rafters. There's a looped video explaining the
converted ships, including the Wolverine, also aircraft recovery, a lot of
photos and other documentation. And quite a bit about the battle of Midway,
of course. Was through there a few years back, one of the only layovers I
can recall actually enjoying.
