Back in early 2021, we reported that the Military Aviation Museum (MAM) had just acquired Douglas SBD-5 Dauntless Bu.36175 from the National Naval Aviation Museum, along with a significant cache of relevant parts from collector/restorer Kevin R. Smith. MAM contracted out the aircraft's restoration, splitting the work between Aero Trader in Chino, California (which would rebuild the outer wing panels) and Pioneer Aero Ltd in Ardmore, New Zealand (which would do the rest). Since that time, not a lot of news has filtered through regarding progress, but MAM recently published an update and we thought readers would enjoy learning more.
