EAA Aviation Museum Adds Historic Lark of Duluth to Comprehensive Collection

December 10, 2020 – The Lark of Duluth — a replica Benoist XIV flying boat — joined the museum's collection this month. The original Lark provided one of the first regular passenger airline services in 1914. The replica was built by a team of EAA members and donated by the Duluth Aviation Institute to commemorate the original aircraft's unique story and role in early aviation history. Museum and Aircraft Maintenance crew will be working over the next two weeks to suspend the aircraft in the museum's Pioneers of Flight gallery.
