Working on my next long form post. A visit to the Evergreen Aviation and Space Museum. Home of Howard Hughes' Spruce Goose and many other aircraft.

Wow! Looks super cool!
I can't even imagine the effort it took to do all of this.
What a Herculean effort (pun intended) it must've been to build this aircraft out of wood. The scale must be so impressive up close.
LOL! Nice one.
It is everywhere in that hangar. Almost every picture I took of other planes had a portion of the Goose in it. :)
Apparently the Germans had their own version at the time, but then it got shot down by the allies.
Interesting. I never knew that.
They had a couple of WWII German fighters. A FW 190 and an ME 262 jet.
That's wild. Technology advanced quickly by necessity during the war, so a lot of breakthroughs happened in that era.
