Footnotes

↑ Materials in the museum's collection include "a partial set of microfiche photos and related indices from Bell" that were recovered from the basement of the Bell factory when the company closed the facility, "many Bell documents and films" and "a complete set of blueprints for the X-22".^[12]^[13] According to a news article, the collection acquired from the plant included "a lot of its factory floor models, prototypes, archives, research and photographs".^[14]
↑ Created by William Wagner, former Vice President of Public and Personnel Relations at Ryan Aeronautical Company and Vice President of the San Diego Aerospace Museum, as the Ryan Aeronautical Library following the the company's sale to Teledyne in 1969.^[19]
↑ The acknowledgements page of The Spartan Story provides a good overview of sources:
This book has been long abuilding. Some forty years ago, George Goodhead, a[n] early Spartan Student, began collecting factory photos, drawings and documents from the company archives. The restoration of two Spartan planes, the Model 12 and a C-2-60, added further to his Spartan information. I was contacted in late 1992 and agreed to write The Spartan Story, using as a starting point the volumes of material faithfully collected by George. Because of his considerable contributions to the book throughout its gestation, I am proud to name him as co-author.

As the research went forward, many other individuals and organizations lent their assistance. Former employees such as Randy Brooks, Rex Madera and B. B. Broome generously opened their personal files to me. Dick Smith, who was a student during the "Dirty Thirties", sent photos and reminiscences of that difficult era. Neighbor and friend "Pete" Howard, a young flying cadet at Spartan in 1941, gave a personal insight into that romantic period. Mary Jones shared an hour-long taped interview given by Jess Green, containing interesting anecdotes of Spartans's early years. Another friend, Kent Faith, furnished me with reams of materials he had collected for a school writing project, including copies of the "Spartan News" from 1941 through 1945. Tulsa Historian, Beryl Ford, opened his vast archives of Tulsa lore; many of the photos and newspaper articles came from his collection.

An international flavor was gained when the Miami, OK, Dobson Museum allowed me to peruse their extensive collection of material on the #3 British F. lying Training School, which operated there from 1941 to 1945. Through them I was able to contact the schools veteran's association, and a number of British pilots generously sent stories and photos describing their training in Oklahoma.

Oklahoma City's Air-Space Museum opened their historical library to me, and my ever-helpful neighbor, Harold Maloy, lent 1920-1930's periodicals from his extensive collection. Vernon Foltz, Director of the Spartan Alumni Association, copied old manuals and news articles from their files.^[20]
↑ A limited amount of records related to Rotol were still with the company in 1990. The author of an unofficial company history, Bruce Stait, established an archive at the county record office as part of his efforts.^[10]
↑ A previous version of the periodical was published until 1955.^[27]
↑ As of May 2025, the donation of the Aviation Week archives to the Cradle of Aviation Museum is pending.^[28]

Thomas McClish, from the Ohio-Pennsylvania border town of Sharon, Pennsylvania, came upon the scene. He was interested in the Funk and would like the manufacturing rights.

By a strange coincidence, close to the same time that the fire struck the Funk plant, there was a huge storm in Texas that produced floods. All of the paperwork on the Funk was destroyed due to flooding. Since neither the government nor anyone else had the original drawings or even copies of them, all restoration of Funks are now down on a grandfather clause.
