It was inside the Boeing Future of Flight museum for the weekend . You can see the Museum of Flights Wildcat in the background.

Tks Spooky.

So I guess this is the static 262 that came out of the 262 project.

Good to meet you and The Inspector.

I attended the dinner on Friday night and am pleased to pass on that this is the first annual warbird gathering at Paine field! There were about 30 aircraft involved and in my opinion that was a decent number for a first ever event. I would like to thank everyone who brought their toys to share with us, we have been starving for this kind of event at KPAE since 1990!

I always liked those...not as much as the Bronco but more realistic to own!

P: Noise coming from under instrument panel. Sounds like a midget pounding on something with a hammer.

S: Took hammer away from midget.

I will post some pics late next week with the fuselage wings and landing gear attached so you will get almost the whole picture.
