The attached article caught my eye when it mentioned how the conservators stitched the fabric of that famous plane when they were restoring it in 1975. It reminded me how Mark and Jackie did something similar in the book Rocinante. I also read how workers from the National Archives found the Patent file for the Wright Brothers' Flying Machine which had been missing for 36 years. They found it in a cave used as storage facility in Kansas.
