COMMUNITY & ARTS

The American Heritage Museum, the Hudson institution known for its collection of restored military vehicles and aircraft, sent its PBY seaplane to this year's AirVenture gathering, one of the country's largest annual airshows. FLYING Magazine featured the aircraft prominently in its photo coverage of the event, noting it "stole the show" among the warbirds on display.

For a museum built around preserving military aviation and armor history, the recognition offers a bit of national visibility beyond Massachusetts and a point of pride for residents who count the collection among the town's cultural assets.
