It's great tp see them get more of the collection out of the weather. Well done USN!

I'm curious as to which other aircraft will be going in the new building. I know it was just mentioned that the Me 262 will be one while others mentioned here previously include the PB4Y "Privateer" and the PB2Y "Coronado".

Wow, they are going to hang the PB4Y!! Am I seeing things or is the PBJ hanging from the ceiling and sitting on the floor at the same time?

Wow;
That computer representation has me seeing double!
i didn't know they had two PB4Y's, two PBJ's, two S-3', two harrier's, two F-4's and two F-8's!
Can't the rendering artist be a little more imaginative?

According to my sources there, the new hangar will concentrate on Cold War war a/c, the 262 going into the WWII hangar
