Please Consider Signing The Petition To Save 'Hangar One' Now!

(click pic for hi-res)    Sign the online petition to save Hangar One at Moffett Field

 This amazing image of Hangar One at Moffett Field in the 30's was the very first CoolPix I ever posted. It was so cool having an interesting image like this available to see in hi-res that I changed my thinking right away to make hi-res one of the identifying features of an AirPigz CoolPix.

 But I have it posted here again for a very different reason. I'm hoping you'll go over to the online petition to Restore Moffett Field's Hangar One and consider signing it to help encourage some action in getting a real restoration effort under way. You can learn a little more about the hurdles getting in the way at SaveHangarOne.org.

 I don't know the whole story, but it seems to me that the people who've taken over the state that I was born in back in 1961 (I was actually born right in the city of San Francisco) have created a lot of resistance to the preservation of this majestic and historical landmark. I think it's high time we push back. Signing the petition is about all the pushing I can do right now, and it may not make any difference in the end, but it feels good taking some sort of action.

 I don't know how long the petition has been up, but when I signed just a few days ago, I wound up at #463. Tonight, it's up to #612. Please think about signing, and if you're able, spread the word on this so we can get many thousands of names on there asap. Thanx!

 

 Here's a picture of Hangar One from more modern times. However, my understanding is that currently a portion of the building's skin has been removed exposing some of the internal structure to the elements. Quick action will be needed to keep this stunning (and massive!) architectural achievement from rotting away. Please sign the petition!
