00:01.440 --> 00:05.040
Yeah the Air Force Museum on Wright

00:05.040 --> 00:07.151
Patterson Air Force base is growing .

00:07.151 --> 00:09.262
Tech Sergeant Nicholas Kurtz gives us

00:09.262 --> 00:11.207
more information about the planned

00:11.207 --> 00:13.373
expansion and how you can be a part of

00:13.373 --> 00:15.596
it . The National Museum of the U . S .

00:15.596 --> 00:17.707
Air Force is already home to hundreds

00:17.707 --> 00:17.520
of aircraft spanning more than a

00:17.520 --> 00:20.090
century of military aviation . But even

00:20.090 --> 00:22.020
these three huge structures don't

00:22.020 --> 00:24.131
provide enough space to tell the full

00:24.131 --> 00:26.242
story of America's Air Force . That's

00:26.242 --> 00:28.464
why the museum is looking to expand and

00:28.464 --> 00:30.687
add 1/4 building . This hangar is going

00:30.687 --> 00:34.680
to cost roughly $48 million . The

00:34.690 --> 00:38.360
biggest way we accumulate um

00:38.370 --> 00:41.220
are funding for the 4th building is

00:41.220 --> 00:43.340
through donations . The museum has

00:43.340 --> 00:45.760
already reached 80% of that goal and is

00:45.760 --> 00:47.927
encouraging anyone who's interested in

00:47.927 --> 00:50.093
donating to the project to visit their
