Scott Air Force Base and the military's first pilot trainer, the Curtiss JN-4 Jenny, are turning 100 years old together. The Jenny was the primary aircraft used at Scott in 1917. Friends of Jenny, a non-profit organization, has made it possible for the Jenny and Scott to be reunited for the 2017 air show on Scott. The organization deciphered over 600 Smithsonian blueprints to build a Jenny that can fly across the country. It's the only Jenny in existence that can do so, and it's purpose is to educate America on its historic significance through touring.
