McMinnville, Oregon


Double click on some of these pictures, for real detail.



I knew better than to have an auction on the 4th of July. I had some real tightwads.

After the sale was over we drove to McMinnville, Oregon the new home of Howard Hughes Spruce Goose. There are 60 aircraft in this museum and they are all just about under the wingspan and tail of the Spruce Goose. It is HUGE.



It is so big I couldn't get a picture of it only parts.



This is inside looking toward the tail, it is unbelievable.


These are jet fighters under just a tiny part of the wing.



I have pictures of more planes and the space museum. I will post later.

Check their website out.
