Wright Factory Buildings featured in NY Times story



A recent New York Times article, written by noted aviation author Christine Negroni , presents an interesting story about the Wright Factory Buildings and the Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park. This story, and another story by the author on some of the Aviation Trail sites, appeared in the December 13 NY Times, and brings great exposure to the factory project and the Dayton area. Christine Negroni is an American aviation and travel writer whose work appears in the New York Times, Seattle Post-Intelligencer, Air and Space, Fortune , Airways, and other publications. She is also the author of several books, including Deadly Departure (2000) and The Crash Detectives: Investigating The World's Most Mysterious Air Disasters (2016).[9/27/16 published by Penguin Books]. Links to the two articles are shown below:
