The aircraft modelers amongst us in Seattle, or going to Seattle after April 30, might be interested in this Seattle Times article:
"... But [Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen] will soon end the secrecy by opening his Flying Heritage Collection to anyone willing to pay $20 to view a Nazi V-1 "buzz bomb"; a P-51D Mustang, one of the United States' most storied warplanes; Japan's lethal Zero Fighter; or a Vickers-Supermarine Ltd. Mk.VC Spitfire, the backbone of British air defense against attacks by Nazi bombers.
"Starting April 30, Allen will begin allowing tours of no more than 15 people, on a reservation-only basis. The funds generated by the tour will be used for care and maintenance of the collection. ..."
And in a sidebar:
"The collection is at the Arlington Airport, 17622 49th Place N.E. in Arlington. Reservations to view the collection may be made by calling
360-435-2172. Information also is available on the Internet atI couldn't find any notes as to whether cameras would be allowed inside, let alone whether they'd allow walkarounds.
The Seattle Times article says there's more information at , but I can't get to that site right now...
