Re-Creating Zahn's Airport -- Information Still Needed

Thus far, I've received valuable information from more than a dozen fantastic sources.
Unfortunately, there are still a few missing pieces.

If you have any information on any of the following items, I'd love to hear from you!

Please email me at: Charles.Jackson@Sun.Com

Thanks so much!

Maps, Aerial Photos, and Movies

To spark your memory!

• An 8mm movie of Zahns, plus movies of the simulation in action
• 1979 Topographic Map of the area
• 1960 Aerial Photo of the area
• Better Aerial Photo of the area

Information needed:

CAP Shack (and other buildings from the West side of the field)
• Location & Dimensions
• Photos?
• Were most CAP shacks from that time built from the same plan? I've seen one at the Palo Alto airport (KPAO) that looks very similar to the one at Zahns.
