South Side of Museum at the Entrance to the Facility

The Fiat G.91 the most unusual and rare of the outside displays at the museum. Designed in the 1950s as a light weight NATO fighter it stayed in service until the 1990's. This is the only one I have ever seen.

East Side of Museum near the entrance to the Museum building.

Serial Number on the B-29 is 44-69729 which makes it Boeing built at Wichita, KS.

Both the B-17 and B-29 were stored in the Boeing Plant 2 which was down the street from the museum until the building was razed several years ago.

West of East Marginal Way S in the annex area.

The Super Connie is still the most elegant looking aircraft ever designed.

What you see is what you get of the Boeing 747 prototype. I had to stand under the wing of the Super Connie to get this. Too many big aircraft parked in too little a space to get a complete photo of this one.

Or you can back up to try and get more of it but there are all sorts of interferences.

This Concorde made the last commercial flight of this type aircraft when it flew from NYC to Seattle in 2003. It also covered the distance in a record time of 3 hours, 55 minutes and 12 seconds. This is right along the road and is very prominent to those driving by.
