On June 29th, we announced and revealed plans to build a new educational center and kicked off those plans with a grand sendoff for the Presidential Helicopter as it temporarily departs the campus for a complete restoration at March Field Air Museum in Riverside, California.
The completely-restored helicopter will return in 2028 as a centerpiece of this new building. The six-ton Sikorsky VH-3A “Sea King” served from 1961 to 1976 as a flying Oval Office for Presidents Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, and Ford.
