Mr. Andruss, the nose section you speak of is far from “rotting away” In the storage yard of NEAM.
The nose section in question was acquired for use In Jack Hack’s restoration a number of parts and fitting that Jack Hack’s was missing were used from this nose section.
Now that most of the nose work is done with Jack Hack’s the talk is that NEAM is going to fitted out the nose section as interactive display sort of like the S-2 and 707 nose section that NEAM have on display. At present it is covered with two tarps and in the winter it will be moved into one of the storage sheds.
As for you comment about NEAM Junk Yard far from it, while it may appear to you as a Junk Yard the truth is that it’s NEAM storage yard holding many airframes. Have spent many years in this back-lott I can assure you that it’s not a “Junk Yard”.

Mr. Buzzking, the nose section of the b-29 has been sitting in the same location for years now and since i'm a new england air museum member myself i know what i speak of. I was there last week and the so-called "tarp" isn't on it. As far as i can tell it's a junk yard from aircraft from the 79 tornado. Piles of rusted engines, helicopter blades on the ground, smashed aircraft. It's a junk yard overgrown with vegetation. I don't see how you look at it any differently.

Mr.O'Neill,
I was wrong about the Demon I should have said the 1st F4D Skyray that NEAM had which is sitting to the left side of the Back Lott compound near the S-60 nose section.
