Hangar Bay 1 @ NNAM on 28NOV10

[owen]

I am just returned from NNAM and looking through Hangar Bay 1
for the first time since it officially opened 10NOV. I have waited
to see an addition that will get more aircraft inside and out of the
weather for a good ten years. Much work remains. My understand-
ing is the both "Que Serra Serra" and the " 'Turtle" will eventually
hang from the overhead, freeing up floor space to get more inside.
None of the exhibits are in place yet, save the aircraft themselves,
but things are off to a great start.

When I look at some of the aircraft as they sit today and think back
what they looked like after Hurricane Ivan it is amazing. If you go
back and look at my Webshots album taken shortly after Ivan you
will be amazed too.
