Organizers of a huge garage sale at the Alberta Aviation Museum hope the merchandise will fly off the shelves.

Dubbed a Fly Market Sale, museum officials hope to get rid of a lot of aviation-related odds and ends — most of it donated over the years, none of it having any historical value.

There are airplane fuselages and rows of old airplane seats. You can pick up a tug that is able to pull a 737, or a baggage handling truck that dates to the 1950s or ’60s, said museum spokesman Steve Finkelman.

Also up for grabs are tools, compressors, and a wide variety of office furniture and display cases.

The auction is being run by Gary Hanna Auctions, and gets underway Saturday at 10 a.m.
