Employees lend skills, build platform for historic fighter jet
In late July 2024, Spire employees spent time volunteering and building a platform for a historic fighter jet – the F/A-18 E1, which was the first Super Hornet ever produced. After many years away from Missouri, the jet was brought back to the area and arrived at The National Museum of Transportation in St. Louis in December 2023. At the time, it was unassembled. Now, it proudly sits assembled at the Museum.
